Back a Series on 3star88 Esports: Six Titles, Map by Map
Pick a series at 3 Star 88 and you can stake the whole match, a single map inside it, or a handicap measured in maps rather than in goals. TF Gaming prices Dota 2, Counter-Strike 2, League of Legends, Valorant, Mobile Legends Bang Bang and PUBG Mobile in ringgit, markets stay open after the draft, and esports turnover counts at 30%, which is more than a football ticket earns. The same slip holds a fixture from the 3star88 sportsbook alongside it.
- Open the series and decide whether you want the match or one map.
- Check the roster before the draft, because a stand in moves the line.
- Stake the handicap in maps, not in rounds or kills.
- Follow the series in play while the markets stay open between maps.
Stake a whole series or just one map of it
Esports series are played as a best of one, three or five, and the markets follow that shape. A series winner market settles when the last map does. A map winner market settles the moment that map ends, which makes it the shortest ticket on the board and the one most people open first.
Correct score on a best of three, first blood, first tower, total maps and over under on rounds all sit beside those two. A map that ends in a technical pause is suspended rather than voided, and the market reopens at a new price once play restarts.
Read an esports handicap in maps, not in goals
A minus one point five map handicap on a best of three means your team has to take it two nil for the ticket to pay, because one point five cannot be reached by a two one result. A plus one point five on the other side pays as long as the underdog wins a single map.
Round handicaps work the same way inside a Counter-Strike map, and kill handicaps do the same inside a Dota 2 or League of Legends game. The margin sits in the odds exactly as it does in football, and the weighting for the room is set out on the 3star88 casino floor.
Follow a series in play between the maps
The gap between maps is the most useful window on the board. Sides are known, a pick and ban has already told you what each team wants, and the price on the next map moves on both of those before the first creep spawns.
Markets suspend during a map while an objective is contested and reopen within seconds. 3star88 Online Casino Malaysia settles every esports market on the official series result rather than on an in game scoreboard, so a disconnect that forces a remake voids only the affected map.
Earn 30% weight on every esports ticket you settle
Esports turnover counts at 30%, which is the highest weighting of any room with odds in it: a ringgit staked on a map does more work towards a bonus or a rebate tier than the same ringgit on a football handicap.
That makes the esports book the sensible place to put a sports offer if you follow the scene anyway. Which offers can be used here, and what each one asks for in weighted turnover, is listed on 3star88 promotion.
Back a sports bet on a series from the bet website
An esports ticket is priced like any other sport bet: a moneyline, a map handicap, a totals bet market. TF Gaming is the bookmaker behind most of it, so the bet odds you read are the ones that settle, and a wager goes on from RM30. Malaysians who follow a roster through a season usually read a map line better than a football bet.
Every bettor uses one account for online sports betting and for the online casino, with the same payment option and the same MYR balance. The sports promotion of 128% up to RM388 works as a deposit bonus on an esports deposit too, so a Malaysian punter can take it on a series instead of on an online football bet. A Malaysian online bet on a map still settles in ringgit, and a Malaysian sport bet never leaves the account to do it.
Online betting and online gambling have no Malaysian licence behind them, which is why this bookie runs on an offshore one and why the Betting Act 1953 is worth reading rather than ignoring. You can place a sports bet online from the mobile app or from a sport bet website in the same minute, the bet app shows the same bet market as the browser, and a casino game next door counts for turnover at its own weight. Check that before you bet online with a bonus running.
A bet app on a phone and a browser on a laptop show one bet market, so the series you opened on the train is the series you settle at home.

Frequently asked questions
Can I bet on one map instead of the whole series?
Yes. A map winner market settles as soon as that map ends, which makes it the shortest ticket on the esports board.
What happens if a map is remade after a disconnect?
Only the affected map is voided and the stake on it is returned. The series market stays open and settles on the official result.
Why does esports count for more turnover than football?
Esports stakes are weighted at 30% against 25% for sport, so the same bankroll clears a bonus faster on a map handicap than on a fixture.
Do I need to know the game to bet on it?
A series winner or map winner ticket needs no more than the roster and the format. A player who follows the scene gets more from the round and kill handicaps, where team style matters.
