Observer Star Rating Betting Results For Nights 12-16 Of The G1 Climax 30

Dave Meltzer's reviews of the final few nights of this year's G1 Climax will appear in the upcoming issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. It should be available by the end of this week. Until then, I'll bring you up to speed on how Kambi's Observer star ratings markets were settled following the release of the most recent edition of the newsletter.

In the issue dated October 19 2020, Meltzer reviewed the action from nights twelve to sixteen of the tourney.

When I last wrote about some of the markets, we were left waiting to settle a few markets that combined nights eleven and twelve.

The first was a head-to-head which required the star ratings of all the matches from night twelve.

It had Kota Ibushi .vs. Shingo Takagi up against all of the matches that were held over the two nights. Ibushi/Takagi was the match of night eleven with four-and-a-half stars and, as you'll see below, the best contest from the following night of action was Tetsuya Naito versus Juice Robinson, which was a quarter of a star less than Ibushi/Takagi.

The quarter of a star difference came into play in a proposition market which asked customers whether or not there would be a difference of at least half a star between the highest rated match - or matches - and the next best rated bout/s from nights eleven and twelve.

'No' was the winning selection as night eleven's Ospreay .vs. Suzuki and night twelve's Naito/Robinson contests were a quarter short.

The winning selection started off as a 13/25 favourite, but was up slightly to 11/20 before betting closed.

A head-to-head, for two matches from night twelve, was published by the oddsmakers. In it, customers were asked to gamble on which - out of Naito .vs. Robinson or Hiroshi Tanahashi .vs. EVIL -  would get the most stars in Dave Meltzer's review.

The main event of night twelve received three-and-three quarter stars from Meltzer. Therefore, it was beaten by the four-and-a-quarter that Robinson .vs. Naito was given by the editor.

As you can see below, the winning selection was a 5/4 favourite initially. It was backed into EVS within two days and was then down to 3/5 a few hours after that.

Over/Under markets from most of these nights were published. However, nights thirteen and fourteen weren't covered by the bookmakers. The thirteenth night saw Meltzer grade two matches five-and-a-quarter, so it was a shame to see how that rating would have faired against a line.

All of the O/U results from nights twelve, fifteen and sixteen can be viewed below.
