I have to agree there is so much more to life than these things. Ive tried to get away before, and failed, still addicted....... I still cant understand why though.. none of my mates gamble, im the unlucky one.. Its an illness.

No extremes left in your area?

Reds constantly f***ed?

Reds are HUGE, a key is essential with so many reds about, and the mega spin means sucking is less often now, usually just a all green board with feature point 5 nudges away means its dead.

I haven't played a fruit in 2 and a half weeks now. I find it hard to resist because i know i can constantly win off them. I just thought i would give it a go and so far its worked out well. Trying to sort out a career for myself + ive worked out there is bigger and better things than gambling! Also the 'feel good factor'!

Im down to one good machine in the area now, its VIU, made about £30 from it today, but when that goes will I stop? technically yes. But I will still have the urge to press start!!

Theres still a living to be made out of it, the profits are just slightly lower at the minute though I have a good Monday route that usually pulls in £260-£300 beteween 2 of us. Other days of the week are all quiet now (around £60 to £120 to share). Extremes tend to be well hidden in Cliquey or rough pubs now. Some New reds are good, some are dreadful, its knowing which ones you are not going to lose on.

You can't say you know which ones you are going to win on either! On reds it sometimes takes quite a bit of money trying out fruits to see if they are there or not. Some reds also take the piss and you end up losing on them when you know deep down you should of made a profit!!!

Its all luck and timing, and with the uprising of more players and casual players who are learning by watching its harder to make a profit.

There is always the concept of luck, but profit is not guaranteed!!!
