South Africans love turning small rituals into big dreams. That old pair of socks worn since Kaizer Chiefs’ last trophy, the braai tongs that need to be tapped three times before kick-off, or even kissing taxi fare, all seem to represent a hopeful, positive mindset. Everyone has that one little habit that feels lucky and seems to remind us that hope doesn’t cost anything, making every bet feel bigger and more meaningful.
Even these days you’ll still come across old superstitions that seem to stick around. For instance, some Fafi players pick a certain number if they happen to dream of a fish the night before, while some lotto players insist on choosing birth dates that they’ve had scribbled on the pantry wall for years. There’s even Auntie Thembi from Soweto, who’s 100% certain that she’s just one win away after the family dog barked precisely seven times before draw-time.
Have you ever been driving on the N1 when a bird drops a big load on your bonnet? What if I told you, it could be a lucky sign. Just open the YesPlay.bet website (or even better, use the YesPlay app), pick your Lucky Numbers and bet the digits popping into your head. YesPlay hosts draws from London to Manila, so no matter where you are or what time it is, a good hunch never goes to waste.
These bonuses have become good luck charms. Players often refer to YesPlay bonuses as if they’re their lucky rabbits foot, a Monday cashback can often feel like someone handing you back the coin you accidentally dropped at the bar. Browse through the YesPlay reviews section and you’ll come across some wild stories of a miner who bets only at 7:07 pm because he once won a lot of money on that time, and a grandmother who only plays when the radio starts playing “Jerusalema”. In just a few clicks, you too can turn your faith into a lottery ticket and make some money for yourself.
