๐ง Betting angle
The tournament had a lot of low-to-medium card games, but when the pressure, rivalry or knockout tension arrived, the cards jumped hard. The best card spots were not just โWorld Cup = cardsโ, they were matches with emotional heat, elimination pressure, rivalry/history, late-game frustration and referees
