“Don’t stare at the badge, stare at the price”, a guy muttered behind me, phone in one hand, parking ticket in the other. Clearly just wanted to get in and out. Clearly didn’t want another Sunday night ruined by a bet that felt right and paid wrong.
YesPlay’s sports section knows exactly what South African sports fans are looking for. Place your bet and get back to watching the game as fast as possible.
What’s on the board?
YesPlay brings together all of the options, allowing you to quickly choose what’s happening now and what’s coming up later. They have just about any sport you can think of, including big names like soccer, basketball, rugby, cricket, and tennis. But you’ll also see all the other sports like volleyball, ice hockey, table tennis, handball, futsal, darts, and snooker, to keep you entertained.
If you want to see what all the fuss is about, you can check this and scroll the top events list and you’ll quickly see all the major games. This means you can quickly jump in on any game without spending hours looking for it.
Why bets bounce?
Most of the “failed” bets are only unsuccessful due to bad timing. YesPlay’s rules talk about closing betting early to align with the start of events. They might close betting early unless it’s an in-play market that keeps updating.
So if you’re trying to purchase your ticket at the last minute, think of it as trying to buy a pie from a store that’s almost closed. Sometimes you might get lucky, and sometimes you might be told that they are out of stock, even though you can clearly see pies available.
With YesPlay, many markets have clear naming conventions. Basketball totals, for example, are marked depending on whether overtime is included, which determines what you’re betting on.
Clean click
Only bet on the matches you are actually planning on watching. Bet R29 and that’s it, that way you will have some skin in the game but not too much to the point where you are losing sleep over it at night. Remember, the aim of the game is to enjoy it, not to feel regret.
