UK 49’s Exposed — Bookies, Betting and Winning
UK 49’s Review
Okay, this one was weird. 49’s Ltd. is not so much an online betting site but a website to link to bookmakers in the UK for betting on various games. 49s.co.uk explains their games and publishes the results, and provides locations where players can play. Again, don’t expect (at this time) to be able to place your bets directly through 49s.co.uk’s website.
49’s Ltd and their Games
49s.co.uk offers five games to bet on – 49’s, Irish Lotto, Virtual Horse Racing, Virtual Greyhound Racing, and Rapido. Our initial impression is their website is set up to encourage bookmakers versus clarification on the games mostly as the only explanation on how it works through their “Brand” menu. They are also partnered with several local betting sites.

More on their Games
49s is played twice a day (lunchtime guessing at noon-ish and tea time around 16:49 GMT), seven days a week, with players choosing three numbers. Players have numbers 1-49 to choose from. The draw itself pulls six balls plus the booster ball. Rapido is a little bit more confusing as various options depending on what you want to bet up to pick 10 numbers. The draw itself involves “lozenges” from 1 to 80 with twenty numbers drawn. It is played every morning.
Virtual Horse Racing and Greyhound Racing
Note the word virtual here. Each virtual horse or greyhound has odds identified, which go into the number of assigned balls to each racer. A “random number generator” calculates 1st, the 2nd, and 3rd down to the last. Betters can experience the game at their local betting shop. It looks like there is one race a day, and they emphasize that no races are canceled due to bad weather.
Irish Lotto Betting at 49s.co.uk
Last but not least is betting on the official National Irish Lotto. This takes place twice a week (Wednesday & Saturday) with 3 draws each day. It looks like they pay out on nailing three numbers, though it could depend on different bookmakers.
49s.co.uk Customer Service
This online betting site is registered in Wales & England with a post office box in London. 49’s Ltd. also has an email address but no telephone number, online form, or live chat. Players are directed to talk to their local bookmaker for more information, especially about what they can win. It’s not a surprise then as players have to be from and in the UK to play – oh, and 18 years or older.
Promos Discounts and Offers at 49’s
As a new customer, you are entitled to cashback of up to 40 pounds if you lose your first bet as a way to encourage you. In addition to that, you get a cash bonus of 10 pounds.

Is 49s.co.uk Legit?
Though winning is winning, this is a betting site with products that have been developed and operated by 49s.co.uk – this is not your standard lotteries, and don’t look for those mega jackpots. According to them, they have put rigorous policies and procedures in place to ensure a transparent draw.
49s.co.uk doesn’t get a thumbs up or thumbs down – it’s just plain weird. If you live in the UK and have nothing better to do around lunchtime, then heading to the local bookie to play 49’s might be a bit of a hoot. For the team and me, we’re going to stick to our lotteries.

Been doing 49s for about 9 years both draws same numbers won once I believe it’s a scam
Pocky
Lol, I love how people think it’s a scam I play often and most times I pick two or three numbers that have come out on the lunchtime draw I’ve won loads of times it’s gambling folks cmon you win some you lose some. Just because some numbers come out on the teatime draw that came out on the lunchtime draw doesn’t make it a scam use that to your advantage I do. Good luck 👍

I used to 49’s a lot. Though it’s always been a bit shady especially Friday’s. Since they have upgraded their site, it’s completely rigged. Frequent repeats, sometimes 5-6 of the same numbers from the previous draws, or 4-5 of the same colors. Another tell tale sign, is that the Facebook groups for 49’s, where people discussed their views on it, have disappeared. They should be ashamed, but greedy people never are. I no longer play and neither do any of my friends. It’s no longer fun.
Absolutely spot on there. As I’ve been telling people to boycott it as it’s a scam. Even when you write to them they don’t reply with any form of defense as in how it’s drawn or regulated so that makes it a fraud in its self if you ask me.
It’s impossible to cheat it’s a random game. He’s a thought screen shot the balls and count them. but other than that lots of times the same 2 or 3 numbers come out on the teatime draw not all the time I use that to my advantage and trust me at times 49s is my bread and butter won seriously loads at least 2 to 3 times a week 2 and 3 numbers 7 balls always 7 balls less odd but better chances. You’ll thank me later.

There is, more often than not 2 digits the same out on each draw ie (15 green 35 blue) or (37 red 47 brown) along with a same colour ball of a double digit ie again (15 35) with 1 8 22 29 36 43 for 15 (green balls) 7 14 21 28 42 49 for 35 (blue balls) check this example out, there are 10 digits 0-9 and 7 coloured columns and only 7 balls (inc booster) are drawn (42 balls (losers) stay in the machine) so a big percentage of the time 2 at least 2 balls from the same coloured column along with 2 of the same digits will be drawn, draws with a rainbow draw (7 balls of each colour) as the commentators of the 49s call it are few and far between, this might help a little but as always it’s just a case of catching them on the day, that’s the hard part!!
It’s bullshit. As look at today’s draw and look at yesterday’s teatime draw as 5 numbers the same and 3 the same on both draws yesterday. It’s a scam as the draw times prove that they are doctoring the numbers to suit. Disgraceful
Getfcked arsol
It’s a crock of shit played it every day missed 1 day all my numbers come to both draws
