itsme · Post by **itsme** » Sun May 06, 2007 6:07 pm

i had my first maximum on the global roulette system in the local tote.

i'd been out for a few beers and watched the racing 1st. got a 50 quid double up on the horses which lined my pockets a bit.this is why i decided to have a go.

anyway.........

put a 20 into the roulette won 30ish, then i put on my fave number 8. pressed it to its maximum 13.80

next press, in rolls number 8,black,even, bloody hell i was amazed. that paid a big 500... i took it and went home to tell you lot.. im still buzzin

had it a loads of times, also had £30 on 9 come up on old brokes ones that allowed upto £100 on a number ( had £60 on 9 once - madness - dont gamble like I used to these days lol )

9 is my fav. number for these lol, saved my bacon a few times!

Geez....why would you even consider lumping that much onto one number on a FOBT machine! lunacy!

Maybe cos he realises that they're not fixed, therefore he's got as much chance winning on that as he does on a real roulette table?

Just a thought

i think it was because i had been drinking.

i had won a bit on the horses and i was in the buzzing mode,just throwing money around, it was just a brill bit of luck. i usually only do a few quid on these. i dont do the maximum often and i dont think i'd do it again, tbh, nearly 14 quid on one number is fooking stupid.

at least i've got some coinage for some slotting on bank holiday :P

hope it will be a good day !

exactly cardinal, these things are exactly the same as playing real casino roulette - they just are, if you think they're not your WRONG 100%, anyone who thinks otherwise refer to my other posts re: FOBTs I'm not going through that crap again.

although it may well be lunacy to whack big bets on roulette whether FOBT or real casino :P
