Jewel in the crown turns good

Post by gambogaz1 »

I'm cosidering adding this to my route as i've had 2 crop up round my way.
The interesting thing is 1 is £25 1 is £35 but they've both been converted So the super/mega spin game has been made redundant. It's still on the cabinet but there's no way of playing it. Now it's just 50p plays the same as 30p play but when you get on the 3 diamonds are already lit and all the cash values are red. Basically the same feature award as if your playing the Super/Mega spin game but in normal reel play.

Take last night. Put £2 in for a feature got £6 in me cashpot.
£2 later got another £6 in Cashpot
£1 later got 1 strike for £4
Left it at that £11 up.
I reckon it could be an easy way of getting the value out of the M/C.

They aren't that great really. I can't be arsed chasing them anymore either as they always seem to go flat with no afters most of the time.

Hope for a quick It's a KO/skill cash and a decent pot then run. Worth a quick go, but i wouldn't go in a pub for one.

yeah they can be good, when its offering 10 on the cash side its there usually, 8 quid if the board was cheap i usually take it and run, if it offers good times early on i usually take it as it can be the end of a streak and if u turn it down it will cost the earth to get it again, just my opinion for wot its worth

What i was getting at was that i have been giving these a wide birth for a while now as they're crap for streaks. But with this new 50p mode it may well be worth a few quid for a couple of boards. I wouldn't go out my way for these but theyre in pubs where there's a red so i'm gonna start having a couple of quid on now.

Im just about to go out and play one of these. Ive got 1 on 50p 35Jp in a manic food place. I quite like these atm, they seem to play so much better than 25jps.

Ouch - being pregnant with a fruit machine must've been rather inconvenient!

Unless you meant wide berth ... :wink:

Fair play well spotted. I am starting to like these tho. Played 1 saturday morning. £35 JP cost about 35 to get MS for 35 then it followed that with another MS for 40 then 10 of 3 cash strikes.

Count yourself lucky! That's about the most these ever run for. Like i said oreviously, i've given up with them now. The amount of costyl tops that go for £25-£35 with no afters has put me right off. I just try and nick a few things, get the block down to the £3 board and leave.

oreviously
Sounds very dickensian... ;)

As far as this machine goes, I find it's rarely profitable. Heard of the potential big streak, but never seen / experienced it. And there's only one here which I avoid anyway... :wink:

If you play them on 50 play/35JP you will find that the Mega spin option is no longer available (Well the one i play anyway. So every press you get a spin which is quite good. this leads to more bonus's which to be fair, when you get Skill cash, it stuggles to get up to the 10/12 pound mark.

I do the one near me every three days and i normally get 2/3 out of it.
