Types of eSports<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Right, let\u2019s take a look at the eSports that have become popular among bettors. You will find that the following eSports are frequently listed on sports betting sites like Bodog<\/a> or BetOnline<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most popular video games on the planet, FIFA is big in the world of eSports too. Players play individually or in teams. Bettors can bet on which player\/team will win, who will score the most goals, plus, there are typical soccer-type bets such as \u2018Over 2.5 Goals\u2019, \u2018Both Teams to Score\u2019 and \u2018Asian Handicap.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n For those who don\u2019t know, League of Legends, or LOL as it\u2019s commonly referred to in the eSports betting world, is a multiplayer online battle arena video game where players play in teams and compete against each other. There are lots of characters to choose from, and endless fun can be had.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sports bettors can bet on LOL too. Each game or battle allows for a multitude of bets, and you can place bets such as \u2018to Win,\u2019 \u2018Match Handicap,\u2019 \u2018Total Maps,\u2019 \u2018First Blood,\u2019 and \u2018Kill Handicap.\u2019 There\u2019s also live betting<\/a> too, so you can watch and bet as the action unfolds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CS:GO or Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, to give it its proper name, is arguably the most popular eSport. Played globally, CS:GO is a tactical first-person shooting game and is the fourth in the hugely played Counter-Strike franchise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to bet on CS:GO, you have options to bet on which player\/team will win, plus there are other bets such as \u2018Match Handicap,\u2019 \u2018Total Rounds,\u2019 and \u2018Rounds Handicap.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n Popular among video game players in Canada, NBA2K, which is a basketball game, is now in the eSports space. Popular eSports teams\/players play their favourite basketball teams against each other, and bettors can make typical basketball-type wagers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re betting on NBA2K, you can bet on which eSports team or player will win and how many points will be scored, while you can bet on the points spread<\/a> too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rocket League is a vehicular soccer video game where players essentially play soccer with cool-looking cards. I know, it seems kind of crazy, right, but it\u2019s a thing, and it\u2019s hugely popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n eSports players generally play Rocket League in teams, and each match can be wagered on by eSports bettors. Typically, you can bet on which team will win the match, plus you can also bet on things such as \u2018Match Handicap\u2019 and \u2018Correct Score.\u2019 It\u2019s much the same as betting on a regular soccer match, minus the flying cars and funky graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Arguably the most well-known first-person shooter franchise on the video game market, Call of Duty is another game that has entered the eSports space. Professional eSports players play as individuals or teams in game modes such as \u2018Team Deathmatch.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n The games are then streamed, and sports bettors can bet on who wins, what the score will be, the number of kills etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anyone who\u2019s been on the internet in the last two decades has probably heard of Starcraft. For those who have not, Starcraft is a real-time science fiction strategy game, and Brood War is the latest instalment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Players can play individually or as teams, and eSports bettors can place wagers on who will win each match. Bets such as \u2018Map 1 Winner\u2019 and \u2018Correct Map Score\u2019 are also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Valorant is another popular first-person shooter game. It\u2019s essentially a five-vs-five character-based tactical FPS. Players can choose from different agents, each of which has different capabilities and skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The best eSports teams play Valorant against each other, and sports bettors can cut themselves a slice of the action by wagering. Typical bets include betting on a team to win, while there are also markets such as \u2018Match Handicap\u2019 and \u2018Total Maps.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019ve ever done any sort of online battle arena gaming, then you\u2019re probably familiar with Dota 2, which is the sequel to the hugely popular Defense of the Ancients. For those unaware, Dota 2 is a multiplayer battle arena game played online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n eSports players play in five-vs-five teams. Bettors can then place wagers on the Dota 2 matches, betting on things such as who will win, the correct score, the winner of a certain map, which team will strike first blood and total kills. Dota 2 is one of the eSports with the biggest variety in terms of available betting markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve compiled a list of the five best Canadian bookmakers for eSports betting. Below you will find everything you need to know about eSports betting at these Canadian eSportsbooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A big dog in the sports betting fight, Bodog<\/a> was never going to be caught sleeping when it came to eSports. Of course, there\u2019s eSports betting at Bodog, and there\u2019s plenty to choose from too. Visiting the main section will show all of the eSports that can be bet on, which include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re looking to bet on a big eSports competition, then Bodog will offer odds. You can bet on competitions such as the CS:GO Blast Premier Spring, the LCK Spring in League of Legends, or the Dota Pro Circuit Division I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bet on eSports at Bodog<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most well-known and trusted sports betting providers available to Canadian bettors, BetOnline<\/a> offers nothing short of an excellent eSports betting package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the eSports section, you can bet on a variety of eSports, such as NBA2K and FIFA.

All of these can be accessed from the menu at the top of the primary eSports betting section. This is where you can see eSports results also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on the importance or the magnitude of the eSports fixture, there will be only a few markets available. Still, if we\u2019re talking about something like CS:GO, then there can sometimes be over 100 betting markets to choose from per match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To locate the eSports betting section, all you need to do is find \u2018ESPORTS\u2019 from the customary menu that runs along the top of the homepage.

Simply click on a match to see what markets there are available, but you won\u2019t be disappointed if you\u2019re after the usual stuff. It is worth noting that in some of the less popular eSports, the market selection isn\u2019t great, but that\u2019s sort of the same anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bet on eSports at BetOnline<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Unsurprisingly, eSports betting is big business at Betway Sports<\/a>, so if you\u2019re looking to bolster your betting options, this is certainly an option.

The question is, do they cover eSports? You bet they do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, while there is eSports betting at Sports Interaction, they don\u2019t offer as much variety as other sportsbooks. You can\u2019t be on as many eSports, while the market variety isn\u2019t as wide either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Currently, Sports Interaction only offers odds on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and League of Legends, though they do allow bettors to be on other eSports such as FIFA and Dota 2 when there are big events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are interested in something like CS:GO then Sports Interaction is worth checking out.
