PINCO Bet launched the TI 2026 tournament with a prize pool of 360,000 ₽.

The long-awaited The International 2026 kicks off in Shanghai. This event traditionally gathers the strongest teams in the world and has long been considered one of the main tournaments of the entire esports season. The bookmaker PINCO Bet has not remained on the sidelines and has launched its own competition for players. A total of 360,000 ₽ in cash prizes and free bets will be up for grabs.

Two Stages of TI 2026 at PINCO Bet

To participate in the TI 2026 tournament from PINCO Bet, an account is required. You can join the competition on the bookmaker's website. Simply open the tournament page and click the “Join” button. Activation is valid for both stages:

• The first stage runs from August 11 to August 17;
• The second stage runs from August 17 to August 24.

The ranking is maintained separately for each stage. Points earned are not carried over between stages. This means that all participants start from zero in the second stage. 

Points and Mechanics of the TI 2026 Tournament

The position on the leaderboard depends on the total amount of bets placed on esports. The calculation is very simple. For every 90 ₽, a participant earns 1 point. For example, 450 ₽ will earn 5 points. 

The following bets count towards the points:

• Singles from 90 ₽ with odds of at least 1.4;
• Accumulators with at least 2 events (each event must have odds of at least 1.4);
• Pre-match and live bets must be on matches from the “Esports” section.

Points in the TI 2026 tournament from PINCO Bet are awarded only for bets made with real balance. Points are recorded when the coupon is settled. When a bet is completed in the next stage, points will be counted there. 

Prizes for Ranking Positions

The prize structure is the same for both the first and second stages. In each stage, 180,000 ₽ will be distributed among 40 participants who achieve the highest positions on the leaderboard. Let's take a look at the prizes for the TI 2026 tournament from PINCO Bet in the table below:

In the event of a tie in points, the player who earned them first will be ranked higher in the table. Only one prize can be won per stage. The money or free bet will be credited to the corresponding account automatically.
