How to use BetPeek to watch Counter-Strike exclusively on Thunderpick
For players that have previously used spectator tools, BetPeek’s controls will feel very similar.
To toggle between 1st Person, 3rd person and a free flying view, use the SPACEBAR.
To specifically target one player, you can use your mouse scroll wheel, or go through players 1-10 using the keys 1 through to 0. Each player will have a small number next to their name so you know which number corresponds with each player. When following a player in third person, by holding right click and dragging your mouse, you can rotate around them to get a better angle.
For free view controls, you’ll use WASD to move forward, left, back and right respectively, and use Q and E to go up and down, these will all be relative to your camera angle, which is controlled with your mouse, and using right click. If you want to go to a specific part of the map, you are able to just left click on the mini-map and it will take you to that spot. Use Q/E to get to the right height on the map to see the action from there.
How to use BetPeek on Mobile
Controlling BetPeek on Mobile has tap controls and menus on the buttons. To move and aim the camera in free roam, just use the two joysticks.
The button with sliders lets you pick your thumbstick sensitivity, toggle X-ray, toggle Grenade trajectory lines, and the HUD.
The camera button lets you pick between 1st and Third person, or Free View, which then lets you control the camera with your left and right on screen joysticks.

Why use BetPeek?
Information is king in betting, and having access to all the angles, all the rounds helps you build that wealth of knowledge. BetPeek mirrors the broadcast in its speed and being on the pulse, so you can get in the action as it’s happening, with even more information than what’s available on the main streams.
The little diffferences round by round can sometimes go missed on the main stream, so giving you access to alternate angles, lighting fast latency AND the ability to go back and see things from a different perspective can help you know more than just the storylines.
