CSGOLounge bans myRevenge

Suspected illegalities in CSGOLounge continue to haunt CS:GO

A showmatch between myRevenge and VOLGARE attracted attention last night when the German team was accused of throwing on the CSGOLounge betting website. The game ended with a victory by VOLGARE 2-0, which bucked the odds favoring the side of myRevenge (79-21). There were various alleged charges and the CSGOLounge organization eventually posted this statement on Reddit. The statement has several charges representing throwing evidence on the part of the German team. On the side of myRevenge, the organization has apologized for the disappointing game but states that they do not have relevant information on what happened. 

We have done some investigating and have found very hard evidence of MyRev throwing. Not only (apparent) ingame throws by tomfoolery, we have found significant evidence that they thre. For two out of five members, 90% of their friends placed against them. Those friends had alt accounts, wich also betted against them. Another piece of evidence was some of these alt accounts and maxbets as their only bet, wich was against their friend and the majority favorite. Finally, one os the MyRev teammembers have placed a maxbet against themselves, we have found it just to return skins to all users. Sorry for all legitimate Volgare betters, but this is a necessity. GL and sorry for the inconvenience!”

The German organization has still yet to release a statement, but has promised that they will give one soon. Stay tuned for more.

We've seen @myRevenge_eV team last time on csgolounge.
