We must have heard a few!

"Are you winning?" (This said after they have watched you approach the bar for more change 3 times in 10 mins!) "er, yes I am, i just thought i'd get some MORE change!)"

"Ah, youve got £20 in the bank, you must be winning"

Or the all time classic when you;ve just put £100 into a red for a flat top and £5 afters....................." Mine's a pint please!" :shock:

get comments about whos round it is all the time,
but the one time that i remember from the whole of the time ive been playing fruits, i was really pissed off, id wasted a day going around locations that were either off or fucked or chipped.



i was very very carelessley playing the money laundery in the last location i hit, knowing full well that the chip was on its way that day... intending to bank the machine and never come back..

it was obvious and the staff must have been able to see what i was doing, anyway, this guys stood next to me playing some shitty machine..
watching my every move,

so after about 20 minutes

him "hey mate, ive lost loads in that over the last few weeks, ive put £50 in before and didnt get on the board"

me "yeah its shit, dont play it"

machine "jackpot"

him "hey you got another jackpot"

me "yeah"

him "is that the emptyer then?"

me "what?" (shocked that he actually asked and didnt just watch me and copy???)

him "gambling on the nudges?"

me "what do you think you thick twat?"

him "eh"

me "look, fuck off, (points behind me) go over there and watch or summat, you're annoying me"

him "sorry mate, i didnt mean to annoy you"

me "how much of a knob are you? just keep ya fucking mouth shut and you might learn something"

him "i was just asking"

me (shouting at this point) "you think someone can naturally nudge in 6 jackpots in a row? eh? grow a fucking brain"

arcade woman "hiya guys, are you ok?"

me "this guys watching me and breathing down my neck"

him "hes emptying that ya know, hes ripping it off" (as woman pushes him away)

woman "look, i know your a regular but you cant be talking to people you dont know, leave him be"

bloke walks off to other side of arcade

me "cheers love, do you mind watching this payout for me?"

machine alarms straight away with a pretty big iou

her "oh not again... its always doing that"

me "can ya pay me out love, im in a hurry"

her "yeah ill just get the book"

pays me like £60 odd in cash

she then assures me that if i come back in, that guy wont be bugging me, then says "your favorite machine should be back on next time you're back, but remember, theres only one winner on these things!"



looking back, that was the most annoying bloke in the world,
i laughed though, walking out, "theres only one winner" that machine hadnt taken a penny profit in the 4 months it was there, id been doing it a few times a week, someone else had too, as i went in a few times and it was dangerously low, id iou'ed it about 5 or 6 times, and i was right, a day or two later, i was passing, so i nipped in and it was being played, nudges werent lighting up to cancel and it was sucking like fuck, i put £3 in a supernova and got mystery win on the board, two nudges for the next mystery, and superhold for mystery win again for £25, collected and never been back...

Quality read spyder

Another one is when you have just reapproached the bar after playing.

Always at least two blokes talking to one another.

1st Bloke "Did you win then?"

Me " Nah, not really,just evens" (always say this whether I win or lose)

1st Bloke " I don't understand them things.........................."

2nd Bloke " No , me neither, there's only one winner though!........................" :roll:

Yeah that old chestnut gets me. Was £140 into a SMTM last week and just got a £70. Old man wanders over and is like 'Oh my god! You've won £70!', cue chuckle from me saying i'm still £70 down, he doesn't believe me etc. Same old.
