Went for a smoke in the CIU put 1 in Disco Crazy and got a board. Took shots and got to 12.80 decided to collect as its only 5p a go so few free pints. Pressed take cash like a knob for 2 and starts the hi lo again and 10 exchange. Gambled up to the 10 and took the board. Ended up with Hi Lo cash which paid 15. Not a massive win but pleased I turned it around. Only 2.10 a pint and 2.40 Double Smirnoff n coke too :-)

Also was pissed and off it on diddleys and came 3rd in a Reilys sit n go so put my fiver (3rd stake back 2nd 15 winner 25) in "old" Rainbow Riches" and got 5 leps on 2.00 stake for 300. Got a round of drinks in as they used to serve 24 hour drinks BUT the round was about a fiver as everyone wanted coke or tea as it was about 7am (free tea for regulars anyway tea bags cost 3p) Double bonus

ive done an electro drunk and issed at 15 then next board missed at 30 then next board hit it for the top so had £115 rather than 70.
today i had a accident that was uncontrolled that worked out good.
perfect deal, 25p and 50p maxed £1 on 40 cost 100 for the £1 then when going for the 50p it went all the way, i thought i was gonna get a 70 and be at a loss with a stono machine but it did a 140 so all good

I remember when donds first came out, I had the dond board with 2 values left and was talking to my bro about the offer and what percentage the offer was to the overall amount of the boxes blah blah blah, I had only put a few quid in it and after a few minutes I said "fuck it, I'll just deal, and as I went to press deal it timed out and no dealt on its own to give me the Mega Streak!

Still fucking flat in them days too!

I made a boo-boo on one of the earlier DONDs back in Autumn 2007. I can't remember which variant but it had a barcode / red boxes for hidden features. Anyway, I was playing the phones game and I had the perfect ending: £35 and MS left. I dealt by accident and it gave me the £35 no repeat. A few quid later, it then gave me a true skill hiddens. I chose 'win series' and it went for the jackpot amount £35. So depending on what the MS would have done, I potentially benefited from my mistake.

Played Knock Out (think that was the name - it is a poker face et al clone)
£1.50 in, change from beer, instantly got stern looks from the group I was with as we were meant to be having a drink. Decided to collect any win.
Goes inside for a staggering £12 - now I am thinking must collect.
Stupidly pushed start, threw me out and onto question mark, survived and hit start again. It went in and in. cashpot rose to £20

Success lol
