Finding the best CSGO gambling sites in 2019 is not that easy. CSGO gambling has had a chequered past to say the least, with many sites being shut down and penalised because of illegal activity.

There is clearly a demand among some Counter-Strike lovers to bet on their favourite game but for the sector to be sustainable long-term, CSGO gambling sites must comply with the laws - primarily for the safety and security of esports fans but also for the sake of themselves.

Posted by xterm @ 17:45 CST, 1 November 2009 - iMsg
The GGL is proud to announce the launching of 4 new ladders, all sanctioned by the Association of Gaming Professionals.
The ladders are in Duel, CTF, Clan Arena, and Team Deathmatch. Please register and join the Quake Live competition!

Duel

TDM

CTF

Clan Arena

AGP Ranking points will be awarded at the end of each month for the regional and international rankings. The ladders will be reset at month's end to restart and continue

Below are the monthly point distribution for each:

1st-8th - 5 points
9th-16th - 3 points
17th-32nd - 1 point

Go to the official AGP site for further details. Note that as everything is working together in the AGP Rankings, the ladders will help lower skilled players more in rankings than higher skilled but that is their point. The higher skilled should utilize these extra points for better seedings in tournaments but they are not a must. Team modes are currently being worked to establish international and regional rankings as well. This will take more time and cooperation. Stay tuned to AGPTour.com for team mode ranking announcements soon.

Scheduled: 07:00 CST, 1 November 2009 to 14:00 CST, 1 November 2009
Schedule: Passed

Update: Holysh1t TV Steam!

After the poor response we received from the North American community, reasons not withstanding we have decided to head back to familiar turf - Europe. But this time we're back not just back with a standard Duel cup, we're going to be doing a 2v2 Team DeathMatch Cup.

The cup will be played on November 1st and will feature 64 slots. Games are scheduled to commence at 08:00 CDT. This time we have the check-in system involved and teams will check-in via comments, in the post for that purpose. Since we don't have a automated check-in system, this is something we had to come up with to avoid default results in Round 1.

A note to previous winners, when the cup was sponsored by Bestpoker, they never sent us the money they promised for those tournaments and we in turn aren't able to give those cash prizes to you. We weren't aware of this until recently and thought it would be best to address the issue - we apologize for this but we're not concerned with BestPoker anymore. Since then we have had successful tournaments in September, October and plan to hold more tournaments in November. Winners of previous tournaments (non-BestPoker sponsored) can vouch for the fact that they got their money and hardware.

The AGP presents a blooper video from the ESL Quake Live Intel Extreme Masters 4 Global Challenge in Dubai. The tournament was great but also had some funny moments. Hope you all enjoy.


We posted an additional AGP Classic match this week as well: Fatal1ty vs Zero4 at QuakeCon 2002. You all might remember when the defending champion of QuakeCon got shut out on DM6. Well, this is it.


Stay tuned next week for a special treat.
