You open YesPlay, and suddenly you’re watching the clock counting down. Live soccer games are up front, the scores change every second and it seems like the markets are always shifting, so naturally you want to place a quick bet. But this is exactly where beginners lose money. Stay calm, pick the right moment, and read about all the awesome YesPlay features before you confirm your bet.
YesPlay shows you the live score in real time as well as all of the odds and how they’re changing.
Live soccer
If you want to follow the scores from your favourite football matches, simply click on the Sports tab. Here, you can filter games based on time, such as Live, 1h, 3h, and leagues. From there, you can find a ton of leagues to bet on, from Europe to local action. South African games are shown very often, from Premier Soccer League to cups, and if you’re lucky you might even spot global club matches. Each score is shown in real time so you won’t have to refresh the page or go somewhere else to stay up to date.
Market mix
On live fixtures you’ll usually see match result, totals, and handicaps, and extra options when you view the event. Be careful and don’t bet on the first number you see. Before you place your bet, see what the score is, how much time is left, the pressure pattern, and only then pick a market that makes sense. If you want to jump straight into it, check this. Prices are decimal, stakes and payouts are in ZAR, and selections settle by the rules that are on the website.
Rookie snags
A smart thing would be to not only look at the scoreboard when you’re making a bet but also think about fouls and the tempo of the game. One other thing that you want to avoid doing is clicking into every extra option that you see. Just find one that you think will give you a chance to win, and don’t think about the rest.
