In my local yesterday and had a quick go on this machine, keyed and was full.

Anyway only had a few quid on it cos i know how bad it is.

The barman then came over and proceeded to tell me that nobody had ever won the j/p from this machine in 2 months of it being sited there.

Also it has never given more than two out of the five of the symbols for the tops.

I have seen somebody put £180 through it without the slightest hint of a j/p.

It is always full and isnt refilled, so is there something wrong with this m/c??

Are you sure the percentages haven't been raped (using a 20% payout chip) or something like that?

Not sure, but even with a 20% payout chip it would still pay out jp in 2 months i would imagine.

The most anyone has won is about a £14 cashpot. The machine is from a fairly reputable dealer round these parts and the other one they have in the pub is Top Giza which drops jp's for fun :)

Probabyly jackpot boards, i.e the 14 pound one, are being collected early on, because there arn't players hitting it.

Nope deffo not mate, there are a few decent players round here who force and get nowhere on it.

As i said my mate did a £180 force and didnt even get near a j/p after backing from the off!!

Another reason why I maintain my point of not playing these or anything similar... :shock:

Crikey, even a BFM wouldn't be 'that' bad!... ...Jeez, what am I saying?!

Even if it had just been re-filled after £180 in without collecting anything WOULD have given a jackpot. Period.

Sounds like an illegal payout percentage to me...

% mite have been raped via keying in its previous location.

It could suck potentially forever if people kept keying it to pieces.

What do the board start on?

A £4 start on normal cash stack should mean a JP within £20 easily

Yes i know it would on a normal extreme machine, however this one is no normal machine. I would wager that nobody could drop the jp within £20/£50 or even £100.

you cant get a 20% chip. lowest one IIRC is 72%, anything less is illegal.

So by that logic, heroin is illegal therefore it doesnt exist. :roll:
