Iv never had a ESB or dig it repeat. Pretty shocking losing that much if was ready. Most things are taking the piss for me. It must of had more chips then what iv had.

How did it stitch you on an 18 nudge board ?
No Add Again or Taxi ?

Iv never seen 18 nudges iva. Was it still boarding after you took once? Or did you just run away and didn't look back? think i possibly would of took the second option. I hope I don't come across a one of these then.

I've done £200 odd in one before and walked away not getting it, went back a few days later and it was fine, and every visit there after, i know someone who did £340 in one too, and again walked away without getting it.

It would either give u add again and no nudges if u were very lucky u might get 1 nudge with a add again but would not get near even with a 20 odd pound cashpot in your face, come out twice by hitting big money twice thats how ready it was def different program been playing these for longer than most.

Could it have been taken for the monster repeat top previous? Played loads of these and never been stung to that extent - yes - I've had them piss about, but nothing horrendous like that.

Seaside arcades fiddle with their machines in every way they can just to make them pay out less and to make them 'do what they shouldn't do'. Probably on 50% payout out something.
Some arcades do manage to get hold of some pretty weird chips though. There was the £17 top on Monpopoly in Felixstowe. Another was the backwards chip on Homers Meltdown Turnabout in Hunstanton.
