Two Ways, One Sport Slip
I’m bad about adding too many legs to my bet slip. I pick one good bet, then I start cramming more in there until I’m watching some late table tennis match that I don’t even care about. YesPlay’s Sports section gives you an easier choice: prematch or live. That’s it. No need to go crazy.
Prematch or live?
If you don’t want to make quick decisions, pre-match is the way to go. This gives you enough time to analyse the fixtures, pick the right spots and lock in fixed odds. On the match pages, YesPlay has all the usual markets like 1×2, totals and handicaps, and a “More markets” button if you’re feeling like betting on something more specific.
The Live section is for folks who are always keeping a close eye on their favourite sport games. YesPlay has a dedicated Live tab with some neat time filters like 1h, 3h, 12h, which let you jump straight into games that are already underway. For example, if one of the players in a rugby match gets a yellow card, or if the midfield starts falling apart in a soccer game, you get to make decisions read more on the fly as the prices change with the course of the game. To see both sides, check out the Live and Prematch tabs.
Which one fits?
If you struggle with overloading your bet slip, then prematch will definitely help you out. Pick one match and one market. For example, a single at 1.74 with R29 on it will pay about R50, and you don’t have to add other legs to make it feel “worth it”.
If you have a habit of going with your gut, you should try and stay away from live games that may tempt you. One small detail that might be of interest to you is that YesPlay always settles results according to the official numbers of the draw, so whatever the organizers might change later will not rewrite your ticket.
