Found an Open the Box today in Ladbrokes (replaced Rovers Return), £10 in for £61 out, then move onto the 'spoons. First one was Campers (had no key), £20 for a board and dead in four spins (1-1-1), then onto Bucks Bunny, £10 for a board, offering £5 then died on ?, then onto Block a Doodle Don't which decided to take £21 which gave three dead boards.
WHY I didn't leave them and keep the £50-odd profit I don't know...

Massage parlours? Eh? Um. yes. Is that massage parlours or massage parlours?
Yes. I played on an Itbox FOBT the other day in a BetFRED. I can see how they're addictive, the raw gamblers attraction of roulette and then video dogs. Just like the Comptom's Derby game, the starting leader never seems to win. Not bad for a bit of fun, but very dangerous as well for the wrong people. I thought I'd try a £10 and managed to win it back playing small bets over the various games.

Campers dont key mate and it cant normally take £21 for a board because after £8 it will give 3 in a row but I am sure It has taken the piss before.
Buck bunny is just crap, CADD is good just get 2 boards and DOND is just awful I put £9 in it once for £119 off the run through IM out of nowere ever since I cant seem to pass the 3rd feature but have hit £10 on the second feature alot.
Just get discipline and its brill if your like me then you put £5 in the roullette after a very sucsessful day and then go skint its not to good

I find that Bucks Bunny seems to be a LOT tighter than BTQ, that Hop, Hop & Away (psuedo) skill-stop feature seems to be far too fast on normal, even at the bottom of the stack, slips a lot like Barcrests.
I think my experience that day was probably the worst I've had. But like all gamblers, you win some, you lose some. I think I learned my lesson, when you're in profit... WALK!

It should be said that not many people walk away from a King Kong Cash in profit, so well played.

Done a bit better today, haven't gambled since just under 2 weeks ago. Played a Gold Rush (never even heard of it before, AC Games I think?) for the first time today, £9 in for £15 out, then onto a Jailbirds also for the first time £15 in for £7 out, then finally on to DOND BTB, £7 in for £20 through two Cash or Busts both giving Dial up Dosh for £5 each and they both repeated once. Finished off with a Monopoly RTR which is another first time for me. Took £10 for the first board which gave a red Super Streak which went for £10, so only a break even there. I saw a buggered CADD earlier today in Gloucester city centre, feature music was stuck on (quite loud!) and the alpha had crashed on 'CHICKEN!'.
PS - That Monopoly is a bit strange, normal board is hi-lo only with bonus gamble, whilst superboard is a lapper trail, never seen a layout like that before.
