Don't know who had been playing a LAB in my local on Friday night but went in on Saturday morning 11 o'clock. put £18 in got to £15 three times which it killed me on and then finally let me in on the 4th gamble and rolled for a nice £75 was well pleased.
It's gambling days like this that make you smile. only went in with £30 for a small profit.
all in all LAB has good streak potential on top feature

Whatever happened to the good old days!!
This has now become my number one red
Reason for this, is the weekend i have just had on them
First one cost £30 for the top which gave £50
£2 later back in still showing reds
Forced the top again cost another £20 went for £75
So £50ish in £125 out
This was friday lunch time
Went back last night about 10.30 to see what it was like
And to my disbelief it was showing again
Cost me £25 for the top which gave another £75
I was expecting a flat £25 after i had battered it only the day before
A great result
Around £125 profit overall
Played a different one today £30 in top again does a £75
Number 1

bloody hell red people by you must have 2 things..
1) no clue
and 2) too much money
for a machine to have recovered over night to drop another £75 after a £125 the day before surely you looking at 2-3 tonne going through it to get ready for that 2nd top?
in a day.thats incredible...have to leave machines here a good week

People round here do have a clue
But they use keys and wont risk it if its far off
Not suprisingly this one has its key slot disabled so that lot of players dont touch it
Silly i know but thats how it is
I was totally gobsmacked when the £75 came in the day after
I asked the girl behind the bar if it had been busy and she said it was the busiest weekend for a long time full of stag do's and the like
But to have so much money gone through it, is unbelievable
If someone else had posted that then i would have thought they were lying
But i have no reason to
The only other time i remember anything recovering as quick was on new years eve
It was a cobra cabana and i left it £73 : off at 7 in the evening
Keyed it at 1 in the morning only £3 off

I can believe it, as i've forced a LAB twice in one night and got £75 twice!! (£25 then £50........then a straight £75 later). Cost about £65 for both of those combined, and the second £75 was followed by a red star choice for £11 too. Madness, but i'm starting to notice a few punting it now. Wonder if they've been watching and learning?ssgtsnelly wrote:bloody hell red people by you must have 2 things..

"Sixty percent of the time, it works, every time!"
Yet another £75 from this today the same one
Cost me £33 this time and it did not show any reds until £25 in
But was always winning on 4's and 8's etc
Won the gamble to top from a 4
Got a totally useless number runner on this as well
Dont know quite how, but i managed to get the fruit step side bonus, which gave numbers in view and put me onto the bonus square one below 1 fruit step
On the other side it had now taken me to bonus on this side which gave number runner
But i was already on the board the other side, so as soon as 1 reel stepped it landed me on the board
Does this make sense??
Anyway yet more profit from this

LOL, think I catch yer drift... Just need to make sure you either do or don't exceed the bonus on the side that you haven't already got it on. Don't land directly on it (e.g. bring a 2 in when you are already on '2' on the trail).
I think I've won most of the gambles to the top on a dodgy number. (Even a few 8's if I recall!)
Best time was having three steps which took me to a 1.
Other good times are having a 6 or 7 and having the corresponding no-lose bonus...
Anyone ever got all reds on this? Do you have to wait till you get another feature shot, or does it give immediate BM?
One more point - had my best tops from getting the Sunny Money thermometer filled up, although plenty of £50s and £75s from gambling out the top.
As we've said before, a top machine!

This definitely does seem to 'pay more' than most other Reds. It's rare to get a £25 followed by a £75 on pretty much all the other Reds (except LT etc). But, yup, I too have had a £25 followed by a £75. Also, a £50 followed by a £50 too.
Good stuff!

Heh - very true! And very annoying!
The key point to these machines (that I'm sure most of us know) is not always nudging in the highest win when it 'wouldn't put you next to an exchange point for Fruit Steps. The one I usually do, is if offered £10 on nudges, the £4 usually has a fruit step exhange on it. Melons are always before the blue sevens (with the exception of the additional blue seven on reel 1 & 3 (but it rarely is these two when you are offered the £10)).
Nudge the melons in, exchange and collect and the FS's will give you red sevens. Just saves an additional gamble, and can be handy if you are on a much better number than you might be if you had to gamble from the £10 to the £15.
Hope that read as I meant it too!

only problem i tend to suffer on this and quite a big problem in some ways is when i have either fruit steps or the nudges fairly high but i dont know whats above the reels fully .so i could need to gamble one more time to get say the blue sevens from fruit step but take it before i do or do one gamble too many say on the fruit step side and die as a result even though say blue sevens are in view.any way of telling whats above would be most helpful.
dissapointed yesterday gave me 2 25 tops not the 50 on either occasion and a red toggle 57 out bout 50in
recouped the tenner i lost through pulsation mind.
