Funniest gambling related moments

Post by Drpepper »

What's the funniest thing you've seen/done gambling related?

Seen people nudge the left hand 3 reels first when they could've had jackpot/cashpot, and couple of years ago in whitby i saw a lady who was so intent on not leaving a machine she pissed herself and warriored on, but i'm sure there's loads funnier than that.

The funniest thing I ever had with a quizzer was when they didn't just switch it off, but wheeled it across the pub and locked it in a cupboard.

Some random drunk wandered into the high street arcade, pissed in a payout tray and casually walked out.

didnt someone here have an unfortunate power cut during playing a machine? then drag it to the other end of the room and plug it in where a tv was still on?

other than that, ive seen a machine set fire to itself in an arcade and everyone just stood and laughed at it, and ive walked into a bookies before and seen a stool hanging out of the screen of a FOBT..

also seen the £250 cashpot nudged in the wrong order for £10...

Back in the day i saw a a mate do an "ice burger" with the hold/feature crash trick, he always refused to check the next board and someone jumped on afterwards and got 3 flashes in a row..

seen a shit in a payout tray once, car keys a few times

i pissed in a payout tray once after going broke on a machine that was majorly playing up, two of the three people who were sharking me on my 3 hour session walked off, but the one that didnt catch sight of me dangling into the tray played on the machine after, and i still to this day hope they won..

There used to be a guy in manchester airport who deliberately jammed up the coin slots and came by every half hour to unjam the coins.. security caught him while i was there and they confiscated the spoon he was using to poke out the coins... "i need that for my drugs man.. i need that spoon, its the only one ive got man" was what he was shouting as they dragged him out of the airport...

Me and a mate put a condom with some soap in it into a payout tray once, sat back and watched someone freak out when they touched it and threw it across the pub. Tee hee

Fight broke out in bar where my mate was playing party animal, he had just got the barcode and was trying to do the reelmatch skill as the machine ended up half way across the bar during the brawl.

As well as many amusing moments there have also been some terrible ones to:-

1. £1,240 in a S16 haunted house with no feature.
2. £1,200 in a S16 elvis with one feature.
3. £700 in a S16 rainbow riches to get a feature. The person after me got £1400 out of a single solitary £20 note.
4. A feature on oxo reels did NOT give a win.
5. £1,200 in a £25 joker poker to get the double pot run, was over 3 solid days from open to close.
6. 2 solid days on a project empire for the monkey to finally get go the top.
7. 11 consecutive blacks in a casino, doubling up each time on red.
8. Some asshole getting pots first spin on RR POG after I kindly let him have the terminal as we both walked up to it at the same time. Gave gold to really rub it in.
9. God knows how many streaks on all of AMK's favourite Astra's and still not getting over £85!!
10. Not knowing the machine X empty in time.
