Esports betting solution provider DATA.BET will host a live CS2 (Counter-Strike 2) tournament at its stand during next week’s SBC Summit Lisbon, taking place at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa from 24 to 26 September.
The company is inviting attendees to take part in the tournament, which will feature iconic Counter-Strike figure Christopher “GeT_RiGhT” Alesund. A four-time top-ranked player, GeT_RiGhT dominated the global scene, being named the best player in the world in 2013 and 2014.
Qualification matches will be conducted on 24 and 25 September with the finale on 25 September, DATA.BET said. Registered players will compete for the highest scores, with three finalists to go head-to-head with the pro and win a Steam Deck. Everyone is welcome to watch the game while enjoying drinks from an open bar.
“At DATA.BET, passion for esports is in our DNA. We want to push the boundaries of gaming culture and bring esports closer to the masses,” said Natalie Loshatynska, Head of PR & Marketing at DATA.BET. “Hosting a CS2 tournament at SBC Summit is a perfect way for us to engage with the community and showcase that Counter-Strike is more than just a game – it’s a cultural phenomenon. And having an icon like GeT_RiGhT on board makes this experience even more memorable.”
Alesund added, “It’s a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with fans and be a part of the growing esports culture that continues to evolve. I’m excited to see the level of talent from the community at this event!”
DATA.BET will also open its stand on 26 September for an open-play experience. Visitors can enjoy hands-on time with CS2, where they can play alongside fellow attendees.
