Fast Moves and Table Sport Bets
Betting on table tennis is difficult, kind of like peeling a naartjie with car keys. It’s all in the detail. Things move fast, and if you don’t pay attention, you’re likely to mess everything up.
Where to find it
YesPlay categorizes table tennis under the Sports section, where you can see both the Live and Prematch tabs, letting you know you can get in on the action quickly. On the prematch tab, YesPlay shows competitions like TT Cup, TT Elite Series, and Czech Republic fixtures, so that you won’t have to waste time looking for them. If you want the page itself, just head over to https://yesplay.bet/sports/prematch/table-tennis and have a look at what is going on before you Bet a single cent.
Read the prices
YesPlay shows you the most important markets first: Winner, Total points, and Point handicap. Start with these three. Winner lets you simply pick the player you think will win. Total points is about seeing how the game will go, like how long you think the match will run. Point handicap is if you want better odds for betting on the favourite. Forget about the other bets in the beginning. And odds like 1.92? Don’t stress over that. Just know that an R23 bet at 1.92 gives you R44.16 back. If you like the price, throw your money in!
Timing matters
Table tennis can be fast-paced, which may lead to people placing bets one after the other like crazy. To avoid this, here’s what you should do. If there’s a player that you think is going to win, ask yourself if the handicap is too large. If you like totals, see whether both players are likely to keep the ball in play with long rallies. Otherwise you might be betting based on just one name you recognize. Also, make sure to pay attention to the YesPlay’s rules, which state that if a match is postponed and not played within 48 hours from its original start time, it becomes void. This is important since table tennis is built on packed schedules, meaning that postponements happen more often than with most other sports.
