OK I have an unchipped one but last time I played it it was going good then an error message came up then it died but popped in to check this 2 nights ago and it was full but closing so fancied another try last night....
OK I've been told the proper way of doing these (my mate hasn't lost on one since doing it this way) and it's definitely better but...
After a few early decent ones was about £40 up (took £70 to buzz up) then it just started being a bit weird.
It was costing like £20 for a board for a £25 then maybe a quick board straight after which lost then another after say £20 which hit win stepper then another quick board which hit £15....
So basically it was definitely still "there" but a bit too much off a rollercoaster for my liking.
Also I kept checking it and I was increasing in money slowly but went through patches where I didn't get a decent win for like £45.
It's like ur worried playing it where as say a lucky strike or similar you know u will get there eventually.
Any1 similar experiences or even still play these? Don't even know when I can go back to it... I've left it like £160 off....

I'm not sure of the 'full' way to play these, but playing with what I have (stop laughing at the back!) I find that it's just a bit too risky. I'd rather just test the water with it, and if it's playing well, take a few high wins and COB when there's nothing on offer.
Have heard of some serious hits being taken on these, and we're talking £400+!!! Wouldn't ever want to experience anything like that!

Well it was never going to be as simple as it sounded months ago.
Like when i first got it it sounded like the easiest emptier ever (obviously suspicious) but wasn't.
Then an extra few bits of info later and I did well on it. It's just I was counting exactly how much boards were costing and it was a bit er - "random" for my liking.
And then u get 2 quick ones in a row and you feel a bit better again.
At the end of the day I took like £160 out of it just felt like cutting and running (and the bar was closing) so not complaining.
Will try it again maybe Sat or Sun....

OK went for this again last night and it was like a dream. Shaky at first and went through a slowish patch but then after a few on the bounce it pretty much went mad.
It also threw in a £4 COB win which worried me but I rang my mate and he said I can throw in literally anything but 95% of the time it will be at least £15 and mostly better than that. Also at 1 point it gave me about 4 loses in a row but I stuck with it.
Anyway had £60 in the bank but didn't know where I was at so I keyed it and it was £240 off and I thought shit!
So I'm just about to start killing it off when it gives me go all the way - fuck! So I just collected £1.20 (which is quite hard when u really want to just take MS)
Then just wound it down constantly taking small cash wins and left it about £240 off - made about £150
I've haven't emptied a m/c for a while now and forgot how good that feeling of there being physically no more space for pound coins in your pocket
Love it. Could have easily banked it for about £80+

Not played a chipped one yet - does anybody know how to tell a re-chip?
