Something is wrong with the coppa load of this near my house , twice now i have put £300 + in it and cannot get past the £10 block off it has never given a JP never gives number runner and only gives numbers in view when nothings there.
my mate who came in there with me yesterday to play wiyb seen it off its head completely ( all reds ) and said im taking that on all day long... i tried to warn him, he wouldnt have it. £590 later no top but completely redding off its head still .
So my question is what the fuck is wrong with it ???? i know its a shit red but its taking the piss now anyone else had similar experience on anything that just wont go ? my mate in notts town centre has a snakes thats impossible to force as well.

There are more and more stories appearing of this happening
COB has took the piss out of me and yet i have had stuff like £10 in for £105
But in general COLT/COB are very risky to take on
People who are doing well never losing etc are being very very lucky or no one else is ever forcing em or they are lying
I have been over £400 into a COB and £300 in a COLT
I would rather grab a couple of red features and walk now
A strange one last week
COB full and offering reds off first £1
£180 in no top ran out of coins
Took 2x£20 notes then would not take any more no change at bar etc
So now £220 in had about £8 to play off
Decided to grab wins as i was stuck with no way of putting more in and after going £400 into one i wasn't about to get that done again
Managed a £10 win on an 11 lower to a 6 now that made my mind up to take the SS
It gave £35
Then another £20 back in span in £10 win on a 12
Went lower and the bonus lit up for no lose for a £105
Then pretty much dead
Happy to come off at that point and felt i had achieved something
Even though i was well down
Question is would the 6 have won and done a £70/£105 and then another nice top
Answer: would it fuck

Had a great result on one of these earlier was red from the off was about 20 in for a top for a 70 then out of the credits green boxes for a 25 stop and step but i have got one of these that has taken the piss before so dont really bother with it i think its like cash or bust definetely different programs.

these new reds are super dodgy, not very readable, sometimes you get quick £70/105, other times nightmares... basically they've took our edge away and replaced it with a crappy "gamble" where anything could happen, same as roulette/bj and so on.

Totally agree
Had so many bad losses on them all from seemingly very ready
Seriously i would rather put £100 on roulette on black
In daily refills especially it is just a pure gamble like ob says
On a brighter note found an 88% with +6% SnL that was full and red rom the off
Cost £60 in total to do £35/£105

Played one of these today which did a £40 top? Annoying. Was £40 odd in for 2 £35s, next board was royal blue so i took a hot fuzz, which lit up like the proverbial xmas tree. Still clearly there, so sacked it for £1. Got the top again off a score, did the £35. Win again? Yes! Nice, an unexpected £70! Nope, a fiver then stop. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

You should have just got it some nice clean bandages, it would have appreciated them more.
Sorry, I'll get my coat.

Played a good few machines yest and was around £150 up so this meant havin a float of around 225 as i was just out for a few and got extremely lucky on sum machines and big tops ect then i went to play Coppa load of this or whatever its called........
2 quid in and i gamble nudges to 5 and it says auto nudge 15quid and quite red(only 3 blues) so i gamble and lose. i then preceded to put 90ish in for a flat 35!!!!!!!!! Thinkin this is terrible i place evey coin and note in my pocket in and no more tops not even past the 25 and everything was red i even had ARB1 boards and tried to land on last blue feature- having none of it.
So for being £150 up i lost £200 and prob at least £350 into this shite!
LESSON LEARNT!!!!!!!!!

I have one of these and 2 COB. Two of the three are alright - one is appalling. I think it depends on the pub and what sort of play they get. If it is in a pub where the staff play for a couple of quid profit they are a nightmare. Otherwise, i think both machines are ok.

It is weird because I had a COB in Yates and it was amazing. Literally won on it everytime and broke even ish twice.
Apart from that I used to do it Thu and Sundays.
But on the otherside of the coin I had 1 which was always pretty shite and to be honest I was glad when it went. Replaced by CLOT which I once put nearly £200 so I just don't play reds in that bar now unless I get say a CCP.
