Coronation Street

Post by JG »

Hi. This machine seems to offer awful short term playability. I assume as it saves quite quickly for a largish streak. It took no time at all in chewing up about £30.

It was all £5 in, £2 out on and on and on. Gambling 1-4,9-12 on start is pretty useless as even with no ? as soon as you hit the £2 mark it'll land on shuffle and ? comes back. You may scrape £3 if you're lucky.

I was going halves and the other person didn't want a look particularly as it wasn't full.

I've played dazzler and this a couple of times before. Once I did get £4+bonus which went for about 16 and once had a red nudge for £8. I can only assume someone put in about £30 and collected nothing for it to play like this as in pubs and bowling alleys it seems to offer about 50% back immediately and save 20% for the streak. Am I way off the mark?

Any clues? any tips? Any tricks? Any anything?

Why are you collecting £2?
If you take the low wins then yeah it will take ages to build up a streak

Watch out for the cancel button as sometimes it will flash to stop the shuffle or slow down the shots. Use your steps wisely to move around the board on good numbers dont forget that you can bank nudges and when you reach 6 nudges every plus 1nudge actually means 2

Like cash said that you ain't gonna get anywhere by collecting £2. By all means play it safe and collect £2 after putting 1 in, but why would it be worth putting £5 in for £2 out everytime.

Also if it doesn't let you past the £3 mark then its obviously 'dead'. Forced these a few times and have been extremely successful.. Had large streaks - MS for £75 - JPR for £50s. After streaking they tend to either give another JP/large win or a few reasonable wins in a row.

Remember feature entry after streak.... offers 3 steps, super board and cash boost (Obviously has another 1 in it)
