stake live roulette voided my win saying late bet but timer still showed 2 seconds

Last night I was on a decent run, trying out live roulette and placed a bet with 2 seconds still on the on-screen timer. Everything seemed normal, but after I won, my bet was voided and the system claimed it was a late bet. I’m pretty careful with timing since I usually play blackjack and I know how crucial a half second can be. This time, it felt like the window was open and I wasn't pushing it, but the result just got thrown out.

What I’m wondering is, does the displayed timer ever lag behind the actual dealer cutoff? Like, is there a delay because of video streaming or something else? I play on a bunch of crypto casinos, so maybe their setups aren't all the same. I get the need to lock bets, but if the clock said I was good, then that's got to matter, right? Wouldn't it mess with trust in live games if the timers can't be trusted? I really want to figure out if this is a tech glitch, bad luck, or if the rules are different than I thought.

If the bet was voided, I'd ask support to review the server timestamps. Those usually determine whether the wager was received in time.

That is the first thing I'd check too. Server timestamps usually provide the clearest record of when the bet was actually received.
