In this guide, we'll explore everything you need to know about sports on 10bet and why it's the number one platform in South Africa.

Understanding Betting Odds

You might be an expert at analysing stats and predicting the outcomes of sports games, but if you don't have a proper understanding of how betting odds work, you'll struggle on your journey. The good thing about all this is that odds are relatively easy to grasp, and there's absolutely nothing complex about the maths.

The first thing to know about sports betting odds is that they are numerical representations of the likelihood of a sports event occurring. Sportsbooks have experts like mathematicians, game analysts, statisticians, and even supercomputers that help come up with these numbers. When setting these odds, various relevant factors, like historical data, team form, injuries, weather, and others, are considered.

There's also a margin that sportsbooks factor into the odds to ensure they come out with a profit no matter the outcome. All these factors are reasons why odds generally vary across different sportsbooks. At 10bet, we put significant effort into ensuring that all our odds meet the highest standards, even after considering the various factors.

Now, let's look at the different types of betting odds you can wager on at 10bet.

Pre-match Odds

Pre-match odds are odds you can find at a bookmaker before the start of a sporting event. These odds are usually stable and allow players to wager on a game's outcome or specific aspects of it.

For example, the available pre-match betting odds for an AFCON game between the Bafana Bafana and the Super Eagles of Nigeria could feature options like the match winner, total goals scored, halftime results, and goalscorers. Odds on these market options are called pre-match odds and available until the start of the game.

Live Odds

As the name implies, live odds are odds you can bet on right after an event begins. They are also called in-game or in-play odds and typically feature the same options as pre-match odds. You can bet on a set winner, anytime goalscorer, or even the winner of a matchup at specific intervals in the game.

Nevertheless, live odds are dynamically adjusted in real time based on how events unfold in the game. If you want to get anything out of your live betting experience, you'll need to be quick and secure your bets before the odds change.

Outright Odds

Outright odds are very similar to pre-match odds, except instead of betting on the outcome of a specific event, you place bets on the outcome of the whole tournament or competition.

Let's consider our previous example. An outright bet, in that case, would be betting on the winner of the AFCON instead of just the Bafana Bafana game. Other outright bets include bets on the tournament's top goalscorer, most clean sheets, or third-place finish. Outright odds are also available for other sports like cricket, where you can bet on the top run scorers, and rugby, with options like top conversions and offloads.

Exploring Betting Markets

10bet offers the most extensive collection of betting markets in the country, giving you multiple opportunities to bet on even the most specific aspects of all your favourite games. Let's explore some of the more common betting types on 10bet.

1. Match winner: Bets on the outcome of a sports event, wagering on a team to win or the game to end in a tie.
2. Totals or over/under: Wagering on the combined score of both teams to be above or below a number set by 10bet.
3. Handicaps: Teams given positive or negative handicaps. Underdogs must win, draw, or avoid losing by a certain number of points, while favourites must win by a set number of points.
4. Multibets: Combining multiple sports betting options into one bet, where the odds of all picks are multiplied for a bigger payout.
5. Outright bets: Long-term wagers placed before the start of a tournament, featuring options like tournament winner and most goals scored.
6. Special bets: Wagers on unique events or stats that might or might not occur during a game, such as a special cricket bet on a century.
7. Live betting: Bets placed after an event has already begun, with dynamic and quickly settled options.

Thrills of Live Betting

In sports betting, only a few experiences can compare to the excitement of live betting. It gets even better when you play at a top sportsbook like 10bet, which has many unique live betting features.

At 10bet, you become more than just a fan. We take you right into the very heat of the action and equip you with all the tools you need to emerge victorious. Earlier, we explained the concept of live betting odds and the difference between them and outright and pre-match betting odds. Sports betting is a fast-paced world; if you plan to get anything out of it, you'll need to kick things into high gear, too.

When engaging in real-time betting, you're not just making predictions based on historical stats; you're following the game's momentum and looking to capitalise on any slight change. It might be an underdog footballer now threatening to score or a tennis player showing signs of fatigue or frustration. These little changes can alter the entire direction of a game, and catching up on them early could land you something big. And unlike pre-match and live betting, you don't have to wait too long for your bets to be settled, as most live bets are instant.

10bet gives live bettors an advantage by providing an intuitive platform with outstanding dynamic odds and updated stats to match the in-play betting experience. Whether it's live bets on a rugby match or a cricket event, 10bet ensures you never miss a beat of the action and provides you with multiple opportunities to win big.
