OK think I might have asked this before but if it's offering dynamites some1 told me try and take a big win then the dynamites should come back?
To be honest I don't know why I'm asking as I swore I wouldn't play another but I ended up £100 into 1 yesterday - don't know why - probably because it was next to a hil low silver that was fucked. I was just annoyed but literally Italian Job was doing nothing.
I've never put £100 in 1 before. Got a £25 COB and walked off. Ruined quite a good days profit :x

The one of these in my local 'spoons doesn't even get played by casual beer-change players. It has to be simply the worst version of this machine format about, on a par with Hot Property. JG, what method number are you up to now?
Negatives
-High values are always removed early from the super game.
-Dynamites are rare as it is.
-COB (or whatever it is on this one) is usually pap.
-Gameplay is non-existent.
-Almost all boards are 7-9-7-9-7-?-Death!
Positives
-You are not forced to play it.
-There are other pubs.
-It's quite warm to rest against whilst supping a pint when it's snowing outside.

Yeah they are awful in general....if they are £4+ cash ready then they have some life though. Best to see someone lose a bit then poach on these, can be a sting otherwise.

Have one here-seems to be backing alot,but in terms of gameplay or making a buck waste of time IMO.

Yeah mine seems pretty empty aswell..whenlast keyed £186 down can't be on a weekly refill as i'm sure there's nothing on this machine apart from you get a MS or pot after at least £50 have been put in unless you catch it at the right time.

I doubt there's anything on this. Hate to think of trying it for a bit of BtB style clean-out. That's all I'd hazard a guess at...

Got nearest win for £15 yesterday off a quid and was more happy than winning a £105 off a red.
I just lose on it everytime i play it so should stop. Gone are the days when COB used to actually give some decent wins out.
Also on some older DONDs the £15 win used to repeat if only occasionaly.
Had it repeat twice for £45 a few times. Think it was on the 4 reeler. Another machine i miss even when chipped. That big box used to come in for fun
