I remember one time when I lost a numbers bet in the worst way imaginable. I checked the price, saw that most of my picks were on the money, and was already thinking about how I would be spending that lekker cash. Turns out my slip was dead wrong. Not almost, not close, not “shame man, unlucky”. Nope.
Ukraine Super 6/52 on YesPlay is probably a lot cooler than you think. On the surface, it looks like any other lottery, six numbers from 52, but the devil is always in the details, and that’s why if you rush into things without reading the rules, you might have a bad time and not understand what is going on.
This is big for South African bettors. Lucky Numbers bets can be placed any time of the day, when bored at work, while waiting for team news or any other reason. That’s why the most simple looking game often gains a lot more traction than the simpler ones.
The catch here
YesPlay has all sorts of Lucky Numbers, and the Ukraine Super 6/52 is one of the more popular ones. You have the option to bet on the Numbers, Unlucky numbers, Odd/even balls, Lowest and highest balls, and Divisible numbers. Most people go for the Numbers because the prices look really good: 1 ball at 7.40, 2 balls at 54.00, 3 balls at 330.00, 4 balls at 3,600.00, 5 balls at 43,300.00. But that’s where you might be making a mistake like I did.
It’s very simple. If you choose to bet on numbers, then all of your selected numbers must be drawn. Hitting some of the numbers is not enough to get a payout, so keep that in mind. If this still feels unclear, click here and read the market rules before staking anything.
A better way to frame it
If you’re going after the big payouts, keep in mind that it won’t be easy. For example, a R9 bet on 3 balls is a long shot. But if you just want something that’s less risky, side markets are a great option, because it doesn’t matter what numbers are drawn, you still have a chance of winning.
