stay off them. Very hit and miss even when backing, like all Astra machines are.

Just the fact that you were getting pissed off after losing £13 and to cut a long story short you were £30 down, hardly Northern Rock is it?Oh and no offence either!

Oh dont get me wrong buddy, i wasnt distraught at losing £13, it was just the fact that its a shitty £5 j/p and i robbed me, in broad daylight! The Cheek of that little flashing bastard! No offence taken, however, i did lift my spirits by moving on to a 3/4 full P5, in a dingy, chavvie pub. Last of its kind! :x

I'm not a big fan of these kind of machines on £5 JP, in the local arcade we have a 3 player Big Top (Only in america style machine) one of the regulars put £140 through it before she got the first red steak which went for a whopping £9

This is the one we have, it is disgraceful the amount that can go through. I have seen some big amounts, but not £140!! Was it £5 j/p mate?

yer is was a £5'er

A mate of mine took a red streak for £29 which held and gave another £29, followed by a holding JP.

So in total he took £68 from no more than a fiver in, some fella went on the day after once it had been refilled and just assumed it was full and ready so went all out for the red streak and did the £140. I walked in once he was £80 down so didn't have the heart to tell him about the big streak the day before.

That was about 3 weeks ago, and as far as i know it hasn't paid a red streak of more than £20 since!

When you say red streak, do you mean when you get the streak on the top reels, ie. Bar, Bullion Bar, Bar?

No, it's a different kinda machine (although still £5 multi-player lo-tech), the streaks are gained like on the classic red hot rolls, get 3x mixed in view for upto a fiver, 3x blues is usually £5-10 and 3x reds can be anything from £5-£29 plus a good change of a hold.

Back onto Bullion Bars, how old is the arcade? Is there any possibility that it's unchipped?

That was a great empty in it's day
