Former professional Kazakhstan CS:GO<\/em> player Rustam \u201c\u20605TRYK#R\u2060\u201d Alimkulov has come forward with allegations and pieces of evidence of match-fixing attempts from 2015. At that time, he played on a sponsorless team called PARTY, which featured Bektiyar \u201c\u2060fitch\u2060\u201d Bahytov and most notably current Cloud9 player Abay \u201c\u2060HObbit\u2060\u201d Khasenov, according to a report<\/a> by Richard Lewis of Dexerto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The alleged attempts of match-fixing happened at the StarLadder Regional Minor Championship CIS closed qualifier at the end of 2015. 5TRYK#R, \u2060HObbit, and the rest of the players allegedly tried to place bets on their own team losing pistol rounds, a practice known as spot-fixing. This type of match-fixing involves fixing an outcome of an aspect of the game that is not related to the game\u2019s final result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5TRYK#R alleged that PARTY were meant to lose the first pistol round of each of their three group stage matches on purpose and place bets on it. Each player would have won around $5,000 with the bets, according to 5TRYK#R, but some of them were canceled by the bookmaker due to suspicion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe did not earn anything from the match because Fitch told other people [outside the team] and so the bets were canceled,\u201d 5TRYK#R told Lewis. \u201cWe also had our team and clan tag banned by the bookmaker.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 31-year-old has shown conversation logs involving HObbit and himself, a TeamSpeak recording from a talk with the team, screengrabs of the bookmaker\u2019s website, and commentary over the pistol rounds in question. All pieces of evidence are attached to Dexerto\u2019s report. The team fell apart after they did not make it into the CIS Minor and 5TRYK#R said he left the team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
