What is the result of G2 Esports vs. 100 Thieves?

Prediction market odds often reflect the collective wisdom of a diverse group of forecasters, potentially differing from sportsbook odds which may be influenced by factors like house bias or public betting patterns. Sportsbooks typically set initial lines to balance action on both sides, while this market allows traders to freely express their beliefs about the probability of each outcome. Discrepancies can arise due to differing information access or interpretations, and it’s common to see prediction markets move independently of sportsbook lines as new information becomes available before the event.
