On this page, you'll find everything about the Esports section at r150 — from Dota 2 and Mobile Legends match betting to international-level VALORANT tournaments, all accessible directly from your mobile device.
Esports refers to professionally organised video game competitions where teams or individuals compete in popular titles such as Dota 2, Mobile Legends, VALORANT, and CS2. Matches are streamed live and followed by millions of viewers worldwide.
At r150, the E-Sports section lets you place bets on these matches — much like betting on football or badminton, but in a faster-paced, more dynamic digital gaming environment.
The E-Sports section at r150 is best suited for players who follow the competitive gaming scene, particularly those who regularly watch tournament live streams or are already familiar with the mechanics of specific games. Knowledge of teams, star players, and competition formats gives you an edge when making betting decisions.
Even players who just want to try it out can start with lower bet limits and get a feel for how matches flow at their own pace.
Before you start betting on esports matches, there are a few technical terms that come up regularly on the platform and in match commentary. Getting familiar with them will speed up your learning curve.
A value that shows how much you can win relative to your stake. Higher odds mean a lower probability of winning but a larger payout.
Bets placed while a match is in progress. Odds shift in real time based on how the game is unfolding, making it more challenging and exciting.
A system that gives one team an advantage or disadvantage to level the playing field. Common in matches where one side is significantly stronger.
A bet on who wins each individual map in a multi-map series like CS2 or Dota 2 — distinct from betting on the overall match winner.
A bet on which team or player draws first blood in a match. Common in Dota 2 and League of Legends, and typically comes with higher odds.
A bet on how many maps will be played in a series, rather than who wins it. A good option when you're unsure of the winner but have a read on the match format.

Esports betting goes beyond just picking a winner. There are many dimensions you can use to make more informed decisions. Here are five areas that set experienced bettors apart from beginners.
Just like traditional sports, esports team performance can shift dramatically from one season to the next. Player swaps, coaching changes, or game mechanic updates (patches) can overturn the team hierarchy in a short span of time. Players who keep up with these developments have a clear edge over those who rely solely on a team's reputation.
Live (in-play) betting during an ongoing match offers opportunities that simply don't exist with pre-match betting. If you're watching the live stream, you may be able to read the momentum of a game before the odds adjust. That said, this requires full focus and a solid understanding of the game's dynamics.
MPL Malaysia (Mobile Legends Professional League) is one of the most closely followed esports leagues in Malaysia, featuring locally well-known teams. This makes betting on the league more informed for local players, as information on teams, players, and past records is more readily available in Bahasa Melayu.
The International (TI) Dota 2 draws a massive global following and typically offers the widest range of betting markets, including wagers on individual players, first blood, total kills, and more. Serious esports bettors often mark TI as the headline event on their betting calendar.
VALORANT has grown rapidly in popularity across Malaysia over the past few years, with local teams beginning to make their mark at the regional level. The VCT (VALORANT Champions Tour) Pacific league now includes more Southeast Asian teams, giving Malaysian fans the chance to follow matches with a much more familiar context.
Many players who are new to the Esports section at r150 ask about the difference between betting on esports versus traditional sports like football. Here's a quick comparison to help you decide what suits you best.
Before placing your first esports bet, there are two core mechanics you need to understand. This isn't about winning strategies — it's about how the betting system itself works.
Most esports matches use a best-of format, meaning teams play multiple games until one side wins the required number. Best-of-3 (bo3) means the first team to win two games takes the series. For example, if you bet on Team A to win a bo3 and they win 2-1, your bet is successful even though they dropped one game.
Odds in esports betting aren't static — they shift based on incoming bet volume and the latest developments, such as confirmed player lineups or last-minute changes. The odds you see early in the week may differ from those on match day. For example, if a team's star player is ruled out due to injury, their odds will move quickly once the news is confirmed.
To start betting on esports matches at r150, you'll need to ensure your account has sufficient balance. All deposits are processed in MYR (RM) via local payment methods commonly used by Malaysian players.
Payment options include online banking, e-wallets, and instant transfers. The minimum deposit limit varies depending on the method chosen, and all transactions are processed through a secured connection.
Winnings are paid out directly to your bank account. To ensure a smooth process, make sure the name on your r150 account profile matches the name on your bank account.
