I did this a long time back on every one, doing your £20 on red, Id say it came up about 50% of the time - sorry to prove your theory wrong :P[/quote]
Are you employed by the gambling 'industry' by any chance? My extensive (played them for 5 years) experience of these machines indicates that they are bent.

Well, funny you should ask - I just went over to my local WH. Tried BJ 1st and after the inevitable 1st game loss (I bet 4 quid each on 2 hands, got 19 and 20 and the machine got 21 - there's a surprise)I managed to get 10 quid up. Then I moved to roulette (always a downer moving games while up as you get sucked dry) and put 9 on red and 1 on zero. It came up black so I'm even. I then repeated the bet and it came up black again. Once more and black again. I then fed the machine 80 making it 100 in total. 19 on red 1 on black. It came up black. Repeat and it came up black. Last one and I put 5 on zero and 35 on red. It came black and I walk out after 5 mins 100 quid the poorer. Of course this isnt any proof as such .....bigv038 wrote:and your proof would be?orinoko wrote:Are you employed by the gambling 'industry' by any chance?

Now I'm sorry, but this happens to me all the time. Please dont play these machines, it simply isnt a fair deal. By all means put a bet on a sports event as your knowledge can help swing it in your favour but do not play FOBT - its a massive rip off and destroys lives.
What has that got to do with feeding 100 quid into a FOBT, choosing a colour, sticking to it, and losing 100 quid in 5 spins because the machine goes the other way 5 times. Every time! I have never in 5 years got anywhere near 5 reds in a row when I've done this - why not? I've got 5 blacks almost every time - what does this suggest other than 1, I am stupid? Or 2 I am stupid and also the unluckiest person on the planet , 3 FOB's are bent and I'm stupid? ..................harry2 wrote:If you are recycling your money you are only getting 97% of 97% etcetera back.

Take a sample randomly of 9 consecutive numbers like that and it's 1 over 2 to the power of 8 (256) that they'll be all the same colour.
Not hugely unlikely and I've seen a whole history of same colour on a FOBT!
Edit: Sorry, bar one, I think it was nearly all black until one red cropped up.
So do you bet red as it's 'due' or black as it's hot? Or not bet at all?
