How to Read Esports Odds — Know Before You Bet
Odds determine how much you receive if your selection is correct. Here's a quick guide to help you make more informed decisions.
Decimal Odds Reading Example
Say an MLBB market shows odds of 2.10 for Team A to win. If you stake RM50 and Team A wins, the total payout is RM50 × 2.10 = RM105 (including original stake of RM50, net profit RM55).
Conversely, if Team B is offered at odds of 1.72, a RM50 stake returns RM86 should Team B win. Lower odds indicate that the market considers that team more likely to win.
Comparison of Odds Types Used
| Odds Format | Example | How to Calculate Returns |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.10 | Stake × Odds = Payout |
| Map Handicap | Team A -1.5 maps | Team A must win 2-0 or better |
| Over/Under Rounds | Over 26.5 rounds | Total rounds over 26 = win |
In-play betting lets you place wagers while a match is in progress. Odds shift every few seconds based on in-game developments — if your favourite team is down a map but you believe they'll turn it around, live market odds may offer better value than the pre-match bet you missed earlier.

Esports Matches & Tournaments to Follow
8400 covers matches from regional leagues through to the international tournaments most watched by Malaysia's esports community.
The International (DOTA 2), Worlds (LoL), CS2 Major — the biggest annual tournaments with billion-dollar prize pools. Markets open weeks before the tournaments begin.
MPL Malaysia & Indonesia, VCT APAC, and other regional leagues that draw strong Malaysian followings. Matches run frequently, with markets available almost every week.
Regional qualifiers for major tournaments often carry more attractive odds due to higher uncertainty. A good fit for followers who keep a close eye on squad developments.
For live-streamed matches, in-play markets on 8400 shift in response to the score and in-game momentum. This opens up additional betting opportunities that aren't available in pre-match mode.
Where Can I Check the Latest Match Schedule?
Once log in to your account, navigate to the Esports section on the 8400 platform. Upcoming matches are listed by date and local Malaysian time (GMT+8), making it easy to plan your bets in advance. Matches currently accepting in-play wagers are marked with a dedicated real-time indicator.
For major tournament events like The International or CS2 Major, pre-tournament markets (overall tournament winner) typically open well in advance. You can also check lottery and prize draw information on the Lottery for additional entertainment options from the same platform.

Frequently Asked Questions About Esports at 8400
Straight-to-the-point answers for the questions that come up most often before someone starts e-sports betting on this platform.
Yes, all esports betting functions — browsing markets, placing bets, checking slip history, depositing, and withdrawing — can be done entirely from your smartphone. The 8400 platform is optimised for mobile browsers and is also available as a downloadable Android app. iPhone users can access everything via Safari or Chrome with no additional installation required.
MLBB (Mobile Legends: Bang Bang), DOTA 2, CS2, and Valorant are the titles with the most consistently active markets on 8400. MLBB markets are especially busy given that MPL Malaysia matches run nearly every week throughout the league season. For other titles like LoL and Rainbow Six Siege, markets typically open for major tournaments or high-profile matches. Log in and check the E-Sports section for a live list of currently active matches.
Esports odds are determined by a range of factors including team performance history, roster composition, recent match results, and overall betting market activity. For pre-match markets, odds are generally stable after opening but may shift if significant news breaks, such as a roster change. For in-play markets, odds update every few seconds in line with real-time match developments — these shifts can be quite significant during critical moments like a key objective falling or an early comeback.
Once the result of an esports match is confirmed by the platform, winnings are typically credited to your 8400 wallet within minutes. Result confirmation depends on official match data sources and is usually completed within 10 to 30 minutes after the match ends. For matches requiring further review — such as overturned results or official disputes — settlement may take longer. Check the Bet History tab in your account for the latest status of your slips.
Not necessarily. The most basic market — match winner — can be understood by anyone without deep game knowledge; you simply pick the team you think will win. That said, a stronger grasp of the game's meta, team records, and roster will help you make more informed decisions, especially for specialised markets like map handicaps or in-game statistics. Starting with simple markets and building up your knowledge gradually is a sensible approach.
In general, a bet that has been submitted and confirmed cannot be cancelled once the match has started. Some platforms offer a cash out feature that allows you to settle a bet early at a value calculated from current odds before the match ends — but availability depends on the market type and match. Check the specific terms and conditions in your 8400 account or contact customer support for details on the cash out options available for your bet.
