Basketball is a fast game. One moment your team is in cruise control and the next, the opponents are hitting threes and it’s suddenly a close game. YesPlay understands this pace. With YesPlay’s live betting feature, you can place bets while the action is happening on the court, letting you follow the game’s highs and lows. The odds are updated in real time depending on every basket or turnover, making the betting experience a part of the game.
Ways To Bet Live
YesPlay offers different kinds of live bets which can be chosen based on your personal style and preference. Here’s a brief description of some common options:
• Moneyline: This is the easiest way to bet as you’re betting on who is going to win the game.
• Totals (Over/Under): This bet is related to predicting whether the final combined score of both teams will be higher or lower than a specific number set by YesPlay.
• Handicap: This way of betting is used to make predictable matches more interesting by giving the underdog a head start (+) or by giving the favourite a deficit (-).
• Quarter/Half Bets: Want to put your focus on what happens during the match? With this bet, you can bet on a specific quarter (such as the 3rd) or you can predict whether the total points in the first half are going to be over a certain number.
Games Right Now
On YesPlay you can watch live games as they happen. If you were watching recent EuroLeague events, you might have seen the Baskonia Vitoria Gasteiz vs BC Zalgiris Kaunas game reach the 38th minute, with the score being 64-62. Whenever the games reach super tight final moments, the odds might show 0.00, which means that betting has been temporarily paused. If we take a look at Bayern Munich vs KK Crvena Zvezda Belgrade at the 33 minute mark, with the score at 85-65, you can see that live bets were still active: you could see odds for a Draw (maybe 20.00), Crvena Zvezda (33.00), Totals (Over 177.5 at 1.95 / Under at 1.75), and Handicap bets adjusting to the score, like Bayern (-18.5) at 1.80. When you see these odds shift in real-time, it really gives you a better idea of what live betting is; for more information visit https://yesplay.bet/sports/live/basketball. And if you were watching Olimpia Milano vs Fenerbahce Istanbul, with the score being 76-100 near the end (39th minute), you could see that odds were at 0.00, which likely meant that the game’s result was already determined.
Smart Bet Ideas
When it comes to live betting, you have to know how to read the game’s momentum and any unexpected turns. For example, are there players that are starting to perform well, or players that are starting to get into foul trouble? Does a team look more tired than usual? It’s important to pay attention to what’s happening on the court. Some people also mix bets, combining a Moneyline choice with a Totals bet to get bigger returns across Sports. It’s about seeing the flow of the game and making the calls that make the most sense based on how you like to bet. Click Here to see the range of events.
