Stake launches “CS2 Overtime Refund” promo: get your stake back (up to $100) if your pick loses in OT

Stake has introduced a Counter-Strike 2 Overtime Refund promotion running from February 26, 2026 to December 31, 2026. The idea is simple: if you place a pre-match bet on either team and your selection loses in overtime on the final, deciding map, Stake will refund your bet up to $100.
