It’s the 88th minute and that cross is about to land. That one defender messed up his positioning and that one striker is about to make that quiet ticket very important. That is the kind of feeling most of us are chasing when we bet on sport, that feeling of euphoria when one moment can change everything.
The YesPlay sportsbook does not try to trick you with too much information like other sites. Instead, you get quick access to the betting markets and you’re done. However, it’s important to pay attention to which bets count for regular time and which ones include extra time.
What you will see
For most South Africans, there are more than enough choices to bet on, starting with soccer and moving to basketball, cricket, tennis, rugby and even ice hockey. If you want to see everything that YesPlay has to offer, go to https://yesplay.bet/sports and browse the Live, 1h, 3h, 12h and Prematch options.
The first screen on YesPlay shows you the essentials first: 1×2, totals, and handicap. If you’re looking for even more options, simply click to see other bets. Plus, you’ll see the big leagues highlighted right away. We’re talking Serie A, LaLiga, Bundesliga, FA Cup, NBA, Euroleague, ATP, WTA, cricket, Super Rugby, and NHL. Prices are listed in decimals, so you can easily see what’s at stake whether you’re betting R29 or R58.
What catches people out
Rules are tricky things, that’s where people still slip up.
Keep in mind that when you bet on soccer, if the game goes into overtime it usually does not count, unless the bet type says it will. Rugby bets are based on the score at 80 minutes plus any time added by the ref. Overtime in basketball counts for some bets but not all.
This sports betting section is perfect for someone who likes choice, but it might require an extra minute to read up on all the rules. YesPlay has pretty much every sport available, clear and simple odds, as well as an easy-to-use board. Just make sure to read the fine print before placing a big bet. A single rule can be a difference between a big score and a bad beat.
