Stricken Peter Smith, a retired carpenter from Kent, had been rushed to the hospital for a heart operation, after falling ill in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Online gambling has been an established entertainment option for the best part of two decades now. It continues to provide entertainment to most players, but there is a minority of players where gambling can manifest into a problem.

At Bet49s.com we feel that Safer Gambling Week 2020 is a great opportunity to step back and ensure the core messages around keeping gambling safe are fully communicated.

The Nifty Fifty is the hottest new numbers game on the circuit right now. Exclusive to Betfred, the first Nifty Fifty numbers were drawn in May 2020.

For example, one customer won a whopping £10,000 within just weeks of its launch. There are draws every day, and you can watch them live online, on your mobile device, or in-shop.

Although it’s not one of the most well-known numbers betting games in the UK, the 49’s has a loyal following – and for good reason!

After all, there’s not many lottery numbers games out there that are drawn twice every single day, not to mention the great odds available and the opportunity to customise your 49’s bet by being able to choose how many numbers you’d like to bet on and even where you want to bet.

It’s been another thrilling week of 49’s and we hope it’s certainly been a lucky one for you!

We’re in the middle of summer right now, so we thought it a good idea to talk to you about some things hot and some things cold. After all, the British weather is the greatest lottery of all!

In particular, we’re going to discuss hot and cold lottery numbers, including what they are, why people use them to pick their lotto numbers, if they’re actually a useful way to predict the next 49’s results and, indeed, what the latest Bet49’s hot and cold numbers are.

Ah, don’t we all love a good conspiracy?

However, while it may sometimes feel that we’ll never win a lotto jackpot, it’s not true that the 49’s is fixed so that you can’t win.

How can we be so sure? Well, like all gambling products in the UK, the 49’s is heavily regulated by numerous bodies that ensure players are subject to a fair and transparent betting experience.

Indeed, the UK Gambling Commission is responsible for licensing products (such as the 49's) as well as bookmakers (such as bet365) to check that both aspects are behaving responsibly to players.

It feels like a long time and so much has happened since the 49's was suspended on 22nd March.

Thankfully, though, the excitement will return soon with the 49’s draw set to return on 15th June as the new normality beckons!

We regret to inform you that lottery betting on the 49’s has been suspended. The operator behind the 49’s lotto announced the following today (23/03/20):

We are sorry but the 49’s products are suspended until further notice. We hope our staff and customers stay safe and we will be back as soon as it’s safe to operate - 49s.co.uk, 23/03/20
