Is 'Bucks Bunny' the same as this? I'd say the design of these machines is poor, nowhere near the same as say, a JPTRR etc...

Although having said that, twice I've forced a top streak which has gone for £25, next board flashes for a £75...

Has anyone had a flash and got less than £75 from Red BB / BTQ? If not, it may be something to do with this?

Unfortunately I have had it flash at me a fair few times and never had the £75 off of it. Had plenty of £50's and even a few flat £25's Although once did get three flashes in a row which went for a grand total of £100.

Not really heard any rumblings of anything on this would also be interested if someone had something. As at the moment if you order a pint round my area if seems to come with a free Billy the Quid bandit (which aint a good thing).

Oh well, you never know...

These are really only worth playing if you get offered a shot of around £8 on your first board. Even playing for beer money is extremely ill-advised, as most of the features are poop and the cashpot isn't even a repeat chance unless you get the five icons...

ive had a few flashes go for £25 on this aswell...other day i got a flash that went for a £100 was insane, had taken a £25 red cash shot board before too..i actually prefer this to the JJ/JPTRR types but still generally a shit machine, dont really go more than 10/15 in unless i see the £10 shot or say MS offered on 1st few boards.

something on this would be good though as they seem to get pumped round here.specially on 50p spins

I saw it! I had it! .. and it was glorious!!

The build-up was nothing special - fairly progressive I suppose - and the red BTQ came about £10 after two consecutive boards which offered the red £25 shot but then went on to die; which I assume was a clue - never had a board offering JP (red) that didn't then go on to give top feature.

Mixed fruit wins for the first £25, then it dumped in 3 consecutive jackpots for a £100 top feature. Then, to my utter astonishment, the next board went IM (but only gave one JP - how boring lol) which emptied the notechangerless machine.

Think I might give that particular machine a miss for a week or so

I've certainly noticed that with these machines. They are completely crap to play if they are way off the streak - you probably won't get any wins upward of a fiver. Then when the streak is there, wallop, a good £100 plus.

its not like you often get these big £100 streaks matt- bloody rare if you ask me, poor machine imo, had red BTQ a few times and every time has been £25 stop and nothing much to speak of afterwards.

I've only played this machine a couple of times, but I did notice it likes to give skill continues a lot from Mystery squares (can be totally pseudo when it wants though), last time I played this I got a rewind to avoid a ? and go back in the inner board and got a £13 cashpot which trueskill repeated.

It a bad sign - boards offering Skill Continue are just delaying the inevitable - very often it'll award it when you move out of the 2nd level and if you win it'll roll in a 7 straight to the Game Over square.

Agree with Nixy on this with regards to Skill Continue was playing this today at dinner showing from start £5 shots. Lost count of times got to skill level three won that then straight away seven for game over.

Ended up putting £70 in to it for a £50 BTQ red then started to collecting sensible wins ended up with £87 out so not that bad really.
