Ever made a mistake when you wanted to place a bet on Lucky 5? A round moves quickly, but sometimes our thumbs don’t, resulting in the bet being placed on the wrong number. We’re about to tell you how to avoid that when playing BetGames Lucky 5, and how to make sure that all of your clicks on YesPlay are good.
The trap
Lucky 5 runs on a very tight clock. Once the timer hits zero, any late bets will go to the next round, instead of the one you were hoping for. What that means is that if you place a bet at the last second, you might end up betting on a different board than you wanted. The solution to this problem is very simple. Try to place a bet a couple of seconds before the timer reaches zero, and then double-check the slip before the round begins. If you see a red spinning timer, just chill out and wait for the next round.

Always keep your setup tidy by deciding on the market first, then setting a stake, and then confirming. If you rush, you’re more likely to make a mistake.
Safer choices
Focus on one market per slip so that you know exactly what’s going on at any moment. Don’t switch between markets at the last possible second; you’re always going to be too slow. If you start getting nervous, instead of hunting for more lines, scale the amount that you stake. If you see a great idea, bet R25 to test it, then R40 on the same one if you still feel confident about it.
