The Aviator dual bet strategy gives you the best of both worlds: one bet that lands most rounds and one that chases the big flyer. Many crash games, Aviator among them, show two bet panels so you can place two independent bets in the same round. Use one as a safety bet with a low auto cash out and the other as a runner left for a high multiplier. It’s one of the strategies in our crash game strategy guide.

Ghana edition: stakes below are in GHS, built around a GH₵20 base bet and a GH₵1,000 bankroll. Pro move: send only your session budget from MTN MoMo, so the wallet itself is your limit.

The outcomes, with real odds

Take a GH₵20 safety bet at 1.5x and a GH₵20 runner at 10x, at 97% RTP:

Crash point Chance Safety bet Runner Round result
Below 1.5x 35.3% −GH₵20 −GH₵20 −GH₵40
1.5x to 9.99x 55.0% +GH₵10 −GH₵20 −GH₵10
10x or higher 9.7% +GH₵10 +GH₵180 +GH₵190

In about 1 round in 10 the runner lands and pays GH₵190 net, which covers many small losing rounds.

What the safety bet does

It keeps most rounds small: in 55% of rounds you lose only GH₵10 instead of GH₵20, because the safety bet pays back part of the stake. That keeps your balance steadier while you wait for the runner to land. Pro tip: you’re staking GH₵40 a round, so size your bankroll for a GH₵40 bet.

Sizing it sensibly

  • Treat the combined stake as your bet size, and keep it at 1–2% of your bankroll.
  • Make the runner smaller than the safety bet if you want fewer −GH₵40 rounds to hurt.
  • Use the auto cash out calculator to check the hit rate of any pair of targets.

Compare with single-bet fixed auto cash out and high-multiplier chasing.
