For example:
You have selected 1, 3, 5 as your 5th dice. The roll is 2, 2, 4, 4, 6
Since no die matches your selected 1, 3, or 5, you may pick any die (for this roll) to be the 5th die.

Sometimes it will occur that a throw will not contain one of the three numbers chosen by a player. In this instance the player has a "free throw" where the "5th die" cannot and need not be chosen.

Are the combinations of dice you're given on the 4th+ rolls only ever meant to give you the options that contain the 5th five you've chosen earlier?

For instance you've chosen the 5th dice as 1 , 4, and 6
The dice rolled are 1 2 6 5 4.
Does this mean that all of the combinations that leave 2 and 5 as the fifth dice are supposed to be excluded from what you can pick?

Because i know for certain that there have been instances where i can pick something where my 5th dice isn't there.
