Power 5 acting weird

Strange thing happened to me a couple of Saturdays ago at South Mimms. Stuck a fiver in the Power 5 whilst waiting for a mate to go use the toilet and got a board + phones second credit. No dealed all the way to the end so the last two were 10p and £15. Offered £6.27, no dealed hoping for the £15 and the box contained... MEGA STREAK!

Went for a flat £35, but how the hell could that happen if I had 10p and £15 left? I didn't have time to play any more so played off the credits collected and left. Did manage a red £5 as well with about 3 credits to go, repeated once.

:?

Pretty sure they can't...and I've played them more than most (and obviously not all of them were dead too) :wink:

I would have thought the box would always be M/S or Jackpot on an invincible board, seeing as each offer would be £35+rpt?

Yep i can vouch they can do a MS box too. I never jad one after also extensively playing them in times previous, then got two quite near each other. One was a p5 board with £35/MS box left, and knowing the £35 box marks i knew it had to be MS. Flat of course. I think more than any other DOND the MS box has most value on these, outrageously inflates offers compared to some other DONDs.

Lol Matt, bloody hell, I'm still waiting for my £105 off the £35 box on one of the four HOFs that I play. I just feel lucky to get my money out without a PAY UNIT ERR 17.

I've had a handful of £70s (back to back £35 flashes and one single £70 flash) on Power 5, never more, never more. A few single flat flashers as well.

Iirc there's a thread here where you practically emptied a £250 by getting about six flashes on a row, or maybe it was Matt V or mjd....no hold on......maybe it was Ob. Chortle.

I thought P5 was always 105 when it flashes?
It has been every time I have had it. 3 flashes in a row and phones still there.
