Was on two P5 both had not been chipped but the engineer/refill guy had been round to one of em the same morning and the other was in the pub while i was there! :shock:

Thought to myself she's got to have chipped that. Went on it and to my suprise it wasnt chipped! :shock: :D Eye eye whats going on here then i thought! all the others around my area had been chipped or switched off. :(

So cost about £6 - £8 for the board backing from the off done the trick pleased to take £25! :) cut a long story short it went dead on its arse and in the end was £30 down! Exact same thing happend on the other one another £30 down! :x

I know from playing all the other P5's its virtualy impossible not to walk away with at least £30+ in your arse pocket.

Now onto the 4 reeler same old story unchipped backing from the off continued to offer absolutly f**k all even after lashing £40 into it. Now i may of been playing this slightly wrong but still knew how it worked and after £40 should of offerd something decent.

I am CONVINCED these machines have been set to still play the tricks/cheats but to just f**k you over! knowing your going to play on as your convinced you just cant lose! So in a way try and make any loses back off myself and others before :-

1 - the chip kicks in after a certain amount of money or
2 - the engineer comes back round to chip it and set it properly.

Some people agree that machine companies could possibly do anythink they want to thier machines, whilst others are not so sure. But to see the engineer/refill bird in the pub with her little machine and bags of pound coins next to the P5!! Refiling it! then it plays like that!!

If you find any unchipped just be carefull!

Anyone agree/disagree or have had a similar experiance as myself??

hope this is'nt still a bit sensative too talk about....i've had a couple of bad times on p5 too, at the end of the day your getting something it does'nt want too give so it tightens up, its knowing when too walk too. i was £40 in front the other day and happy too walk but my mate went for a board with his own money that only cost £3 and he got a £28 deal :x :x :x he did give me half though :D


has anyone ever had mega streak in there box?? i've never seen it once but i have had £35 a few times.

I know/knew when to walk and i know they will at some time tighten up! Maybe i just went on at the wrong time? still the machine backing giving a good win. then playing funny buggers!

Never seen the mega streak offerd on P5, but i have on WIYB, BTB & 4 reeler.

Did i no deal when it was in there? did i shite!!

I personaly think it puts what it feels like to make you wana go all the way next time! A lot of people disagree.

We will never no! Cant see many knocking back the offer before to find out unless its the £35 and MS left.

Has anyone gone all the way no dealt and actually had it? is that what you mean extreme? Cant see it myself.

i mean just having the mega streak in your box full stop, never ever seen it, i've had mega streak and £35 as the last 2 boxes and the offer is £35 everytime i've had this situation so obviously you turn it down because thats the minimum you will get, and my box contains £35 anyway.

It is a random selection. Think about it, if you do that trick over and over again, the machine is going to be deader than UK gambling forums, so the machine should be giving you 1p in your box every time you do it. Why doesnt it? Only explanation is that the machine never thought it would <offer you the bit of the trick that gets you the money> so doesnt really know what to put in your box so gives a random value.

Although, i have to say that out of all the times i have done it, apart from one 1p, they have all been at least £10. (And no, the other trick wasn't activated :) ).

(PS. How was that for sensitivity!!)

This game engine is totally different to the other DONDs. You're quite right, it'll only give MS on a flasher as far as I can see. It's a bit like the first lo-tech in that area. When it's totally dead, I find that it'll have £1 or less in the box every time. I know this as the one time I lost big on these was to see how far I could take things. It was sluggish and I blagged a £35, leaving it £70 off, I basically filled it back up, put £60 over the back and it was still behaving totally dead. A completely -ve reflex to get it back under % perhaps. It was losing turbo gambles off fruits, £20 boards and 1p boxes all the way. It's whether you play for that £3 nick that gets you £28. Then it's whether you pay £10+ for a 1p box that goes to 1p/MStreak left for another great offer.
These are disappearing faster than fast.

Not sure why they bothered to release the new chip, is not like any have ever gone empty! Think LL are paranoid or something, lol. Closely followed by MHG.

i was told that there is a way of emptying p5

never managed it myself though


they re chip becuase it plays badly for £40 - £50 after you have left it.


15 pound board for regular punters they get pissed off with it


a bit like pick a reel on vamp it up............
