Online Esports Betting

ESports is an organized sport type that uses competitive video games. There are players and teams in this sport too, but they don’t go “on the field” or play in a stadium. All they need is a chair and a computer: they play against each other in video games and try to win. Any video game that can be played competitively can be the subject of esports. Although FPS (first-person shooter) games are mostly preferred, RTS, DOTA, and even card games can be a part of this sport. By the end of 2021, the esports market is estimated to reach a size of approximately $1.28 billion.

In 2020 – 2021, esports betting attracted much more attention, and esports betting sites became more popular than ever. According to The United Kingdom Gambling Commission report, esports betting has increased by 2,922% from March 2019 to March 2020. Even between March 2020 and April 2020, there was an increase of close to 124%. Esports betting has become as popular as traditional sports betting, and more and more punters are interested in it. As of now, it is possible to say that the top 5 most popular esports to bet on are:
