Sneaky £20 in a Reel King

I put a sneaky £20 in a Reel King after a £233 repeat pot on a 'nop.
Not one ding, not one win. Ring sting strikes again. Not one f'ing DING. NOT ONE!
Needless to say, I did not continue to buy this type of entertainment.
Not even a 50p win.

I reckon with my luck I could lose 6k in a day quite easily in the £500 machines.

i remember the days when 4 would sort you out nice and even 3 would give a 1'er + or - a few bob, jeez you could got 30's and 40's off one sometimes.

mainly all you see these days is a punter's expectant slightly excited anticipation as they get the elusive fifth ding.their shoulders straighten and they sit up ,only to slump back down into their original reel king posture when one scroll opens up for a fiver spin followed by 2 red sevens and a blank.

whenever ive seen 4, its been shit..

3 is usually good, and 5 is either 60-90 or 420-500 whenever ive seen them...

Most I've seen is three, usually £20 or therabouts. £40 is max really from 1-3 scrolls. 4-5 isn't allowed any more, it's blocked. Anyone got silver/gold from king pots? That game is rigged beyond belief.

lol, he'd have had more luck if he played BOTH at the same time... then he'd have potted both at the same time..

I'm not advocating playing these any more than I have to, but you did need to press at exactly the same time. I'd imagine this receive their random number and then do their own compensated thing with it.
It's what feature AWPs have been doing for years, although compensation is typically tighter with them.

Maybe you've hit on a method here Spyder, press both at sime time, the one that pays 50p is on a suck mode, the one that pays £6 off the same press is in an enhanced payout mode and you should continue to play it.

Damn, will have to waste £500 trying this now.

And if it is a proper method, I've just posted it here. Double damn.

Ive done £80 through a reel ding in hills without a win. :x. Then I won £0.50 which gambled to £500, well not far off, it went all the way to £2.

These seem to be at a much harder profile compared to arcades and that. Must be the same in service stations as well. Had my doing of 20 in without a 50p.

It can be the same with any B3 tho, especially like scrolls or leps on reelking/rr respectively.

I have seen £12 off 3 leps on RR but then i have also seen £150 off 3 as well, 4 is nearly always crap more often than not from what i have seen, has given £25 or so many times, there really is no way of knowing.

Scrolls on reelsting does seem very unfair tho, if 5 can be 500 then you would expect 4 to be a good hundred quid plus, maybe even 200, but i have seen people get 50 odd and thats it, but it seems to do less decent roll in wins than an RR does, as a nice 50 or 60 roll in on RR isnt that uncommon, but hardly as likely to see it on reelking, it seems to do bigger things further apart as opposed to dropping stuff in more regularly to keep you playing, they like to just suck for ages alot of the time, plus it does do lucky loser sometimes which i would think it has to save up for too, as dom got lucky loser gambling 2 quid (i think) and when it went lose he got lucky loser for £40, so not all bad i suppose.

Sure, these fuckin things could skint you in minutes, but they can sort you right out too when they drop a 500 out of the blue, its just the timing, nothing more than that with these things.

EDIT:

Beware if you see a reelking potty with a high pots tho (copy of RR pots idea anyone?) as the pots go up a lot faster on these, RR values go up.... bronze-1p per spin, silver-2p per spin, gold-3p per spin, but reelking potty goes, bronze-still 1p per spin, silver-3p per spin, and gold-5p per spin. so it will obviously reach 500 again a lot faster after being won, so a 500 gold that sits there for 3 weeks is quite normal lol
