Went well actually, i started by playing a club ceasers palace mainly because i only started with a £250 float and didnt wanna get laid into the PBC's just yet.
Anyway, within £30 i am offered 20 spins, collected and goes for £75 ish.
On we go to a PCB £250, backing from the off but looking fairly dead, fuck it- i go for it. £200 it takes to IM and gives £75 in afters so very good i thought for my first attempt.
Now i run into a backing CNR deluxe £250 both cashpots full. and dubiously go for it anyway. Costs £100 to see the first 4 of a kind win and a furhter £100 do get them dropping in regularly, this is where the fun began
, £50 later i get 4 grapes for £20 i believe and it lets me hi-lo the whole way to £100, which LOSES on a 3
ops: (was gonna just take the jackpot instead of cashpot as was running a little lowish on cash (about £100 left)) but obviously it was having none of it. £50 later i am shitting myself, it is clearly WELL buzzed but im running out of time and yeah- cash. Reels spin in cashpot, cashpot, cashpot one something else. The machine offers 3 nudges and i think, whats the chances.... Look up and to my relief there it is, a shiny gold cashpot bar :P £50 in afters came very quickly and then it started to pay out in 20ps
I asked at the guest services if i would be able to claim a refund if the particular machine IOU'd and was told that wouldnt be a problem. Of course i go back on, it is still 4 of a kinding and i take another £50 which IOU's at the £30 mark.
So i go to the reception to claim my refund and they ask for ID, which i dont have on me. Oh dear, no ID, no refund
Bastards but never mind i was up a little anyway.
Next- Another PCB which wasnt backing on the 1st part of the journey now is. Everyone apart from the new non landers are off the boat.
I consider buying yet another ticket but its not needed, this one is clearly buzzing and regularly goes to 3rd and 4th zones. A 'hold em' on blue 7's for £8 which gambles on a 2 and the exchange offered looks VERY lucrative, starting on the 4th zone with a skilltop and 7 K.O's. I go higher than the 3 hoping for an extra zone for the guarenteed jackpot which never comes so i exchange anyway. Damn it, extra bonus 1st spin so i now lose my SS and have psycho cash active instead. Its at £40. A few more dodgy feeling spins put me on 9 K.O's and one zone from the top. I just took my k.o's on zone 3 and got to the top zone with 2 k.o's remaining the 1st rather strangely lands on the £250
The end result is a £300ish profit today, not at all bad for my first attempt, after all the ticket was only £15.
By the way, to save arguement i was on a non landing trip, not just the 1 hour 45 single, hence i was able to play out 4 machines.
Also the machines were by do means dead today but i know people do play them out etc. However i saw 2 £80+ wins obtained by punters as well from little stake.
Looking forward to doing it all again in a few days time, was nice to get a break from the usual £25'ers for once too
) in that state, in an out of town location, with the cashpots at exactly that, also doing 4 of a kinds. Would you advise a push? I took a very quick £80 but might take a visit tomorrow to give it a go
