GentlemanJontermothats reasonable under the circumstances that there is betting on certain events/actions, but at this point that isn't the case and therefore i dont see why you shouldnt be able to bet on your own team

POW
Another fairly simple example that's relevant now is that it motivates you to spread disinformation about your team, making them appear weaker than they are and encouraging bets on the other team only to turn up with your full lineup and crush them easily. That's nothing short of simply ripping people off.

It also places you in a position of suspicion if there is genuine uncertainty about player's availability or other external factor. It's not hard to think of these downsides if you can take your mind off the item windfall for a moment.

these examples are extreme, but i see your point, none of these things even crossed my mind just wanted to back my team to destroy some noobs

GentlemanJontermoi can obviously understand not being allowed to bet on the team you are playing against but how come you cant bet on your own team to win, isnt it just like more incentive for you to try your best?There are a lot of reasons not to allow it but it boils down to the fact that it will change your behaviour. If a bet is placed in a spread situation, let's say win by a certain amount, it could lead to the team behaving differently than they would have otherwise and that means the betting market as well as the playing field is distorted.

While you might still be playing to win, you also might not do things that you would otherwise do, such as allow a merc or go slow for a couple of rounds trying out some different strats when well ahead. These things matter to other users of the site, and their judgements will have to change based on whether you have bet or not.

If the available range of bets becomes wider, betting on certain events or actions, then players would obviously fix that in their own favour once again altering the course of the game and changing the playing field for other punters, which undermines the service and starts to complicate the policing - which bets can players make and which can't they. The blanket ban simplifies things and theoretically ensures the game's integrity.

thats reasonable under the circumstances that there is betting on certain events/actions, but at this point that isn't the case and therefore i dont see why you shouldnt be able to bet on your own team
