Smart Matchday Bets
Matchday is always better when you have a plan.
Every weekend you’re excited for the game, but that’s not the only thing you’re looking forward to, you’re looking forward to winning. It starts off with checking the line-ups, but next thing you know you’re trying to bet on anything and everything that has a price tag attached to it. Here’s a little toolkit you can use on YesPlay whether you’re watching PSL, rugby, cricket, or even something like NBA, that will keep your head in the game.
Before kickoff
Before the game kicks off, quickly make your picks. Two markets is more than enough for any match. The first pick should be something you genuinely believe in. The second can be a small bet you’re willing to risk a bit of money on. Try not to go too high, so that you won’t be moaning the next day if you end up losing. We know it’s hard not to bet with your heart when Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns play, but try to make sensible bets and only add a little bit of your heart in there.
During the match
That’s where people start getting reckless. Live betting is popular because there’s nothing quite like it: the tension, the sound of the crowd going wild, you can literally feel it in your bones. The live betting section on YesPlay lets you easily keep track of any game and place your bet. The secret is not to panic and to have perfect timing. Create a simple rule for yourself such as “one live bet per half” or “one live bet per innings.” That way you won’t have a gambling addiction.
After the whistle
Don’t dwell on previous games, when it’s over, it’s over. Whether you win or lose, just accept the result and move on. When you start betting again, do it with a fresh head, a new match and a new decision. No need to chase those previous losses, as that’s how good weekends go bad real quick.
YesPlay makes it easy to register an account. The YesPlay mobile app makes it simple to stay in touch with your favourite sports, even if you’re not chilling at home. From time to time you might get a bonus, but don’t see that as a reason to force a bet!
