No, it's very, very unlikely you'll die on a Queen, it's just super harsh when it does because it's usually such a safe bet.

far too many deaths on queens?!?!? I've literally played thousands upon thousands of pounds through these, never had a loss from a queen, although I did hear it could! Yeah, seriously. It's disgusting. Just in this one arcade where it happens regularly. The sit-down Magic Poker and Double Poker see...

My mate has given them a good sessioning on a few occasions, he only had one repeat out of about 10. I quite like them if you get a few cheap boards, it seems to beat the middle block quite easily: £5-12.50 whereas the £25s seem to hate winning from £3-7.50. I'm fed up with pokers lately though, hav...

On 'picking' Vamps £15/16 was common if you lost a let 'em spin. I guess it could happen if you played any battered Barcrest. I took a pasting on a Space Raiders once, two shit boards for £21. It was one where you could gamble the hazards.

I was always told to collect 3 x tenners and then go for a top. Had some £75s doing it that way, usually went like clockwork.

I think Daunting is the best Extreme for that reason, all the better features are a lot harder to get often leaving them in better value.

I've got such a poor run of machines at the moment, all these Global clones and Deal or no Deal clones. All reds are smashed and I haven't got a car at the moment either.

It's called Get a Grip on Round the Bend and Bucketloads and called Laughing Gas on Docs and Nurses. It's definitely on the third level on Most Daunting rendering it much more difficult to get.

I think it is on the third level, a lot more difficult to get than on Docs n Nurses and Round the Bend. Can't remember the name though.

They can be really great on £25/50p. I don't usually get involved unless they show £7 from nudges though. Best result I've had was a £75 followed by a £50 plus 4 toggle climbs from £40 in.

I agree. Got mugged off from too many big safe cash wins.

A few Spoons near me have been using machines on 70% for a couple of years.

Was it ever discovered what they were chipped against?

Either way, I had much better results on this version than the normal one. Often a largish MS followed by a JP. Just play purely for shots and if the cash ladder gets too high kill the board before it dumps collect prize on you.

Ah yeah, the old £10r-showing after top scenario. I think we've all been burnt there a few times.

I've never had any good results on Campers at all. The best I've done on one is probably £20 profit from sucking.
