Reading Live Sport Lines 

Laying on the couch, watching Mamelodi Sundowns as they’re struggling to score a goal, and everybody in your group chat wants to place a bet on the same in-play favourite but those odds are just keep shrinking on the YesPlay screen.

Why Go Against

Live sport prices on YesPlay change super-fast with every goal, wicket, and point that’s scored. On the Live page, you can find a list of different matches like soccer, basketball, cricket and tennis. What’s cool about these is that you can check the score, the time that’s left and get quick access to all types of bets. Because everyone likes to bet on the favourite to win, sometimes you can find quietly decent numbers on the other side. 

Going against the crowd doesn’t mean you’re randomly betting on a huge underdog that no one expects to win, it just means that you know the sport well enough to recognize when the odds are in your favour, for example when a draw happens when no one expects it to.

Read Live Boards

On YesPlay’s live section, you can quickly switch between all the different sports and time filters. You can also check for a home team that started slow but managed to turn the momentum around or maybe even a basketball game that has very high point totals for a game that is so slow paced. Want to see how many codes and leagues there are at any moment? All you have to do is read more and scroll though all the different sports instead of looking at only one match at a time.

Protect Your Bank

If you plan on going against the grain and bet on the underdogs, you’re going to have to keep a cool head and only bet small amounts. For example, if you have a feeling that an outsider is going to win, you can bet something small like R43 knowing that you’ll get R135. If you lose, you can simply try again because you’ll still have a solid amount of cash left to play with. Always remember the main rule: limit yourself to small bets.
