RIP's and Empty's

I'm interested to know how many of you have actually found a rip or empty off your own back?
If so how much did you invest in time/money in finding said rip/empty?
Also why did it go mainstream? Sold it, leaked through a mate or even studied by an observer?

i found a rip thats still active and profitable so can elaberate.

but i can tell you that a mate was playing bullys skill darts on a gamesnet egg quizzer and it has a 5p part credit in the bank,
when he won £1 he played it again and it only took 45p (coz had 5p already in it) and left 55p in the bank and every game from then was free, then we had to think of haw to get the money out!
so we played till it offered a 201 start then took £3 on the prize board then took £2 out which left £1.05p to get it on free play again.

took some people 4 hours to empty £80 out but money is money lol.

I had a nice rip on rio grandes which I played exclusively for 3 years. It got to the point i'd go out and almost be guaranteed up £300 by lunchtime.

It never did get out 8)

It did get chipped out eventually - you can tell the chipped ones by holding down the 'gamble' button when you get the rio grande feature. If it didn't cycle through your five offers, but paused after the first one until you released the button, it was chipped.

good times !

I knew about Rio Grande but didn't ever know how to tell if it was chipped or not.

Cue some pretty horrendous losses when the chip started becoming widespread!

My playing style was always hold down the gamble until I got a good offer or hit the last one, so the very first chipped one I played I discovered it was chipped ! Spawny find of the century !!

London was filled with chipped ones, but pretty much every other galas was good. Swindon even had four of them in a row ! Cleared £2000 profit from that Galas in one hit.

Had £1K JP ones in a few casinos as well :-)

Happy times indeed.

We never had the guts to try a £1k one, though I did see them. Sick.
