Its dead when it gives coins then like 1 or 2 bonus nudges then game over, if you take pot then the next board offers like £4+rep then just play for a rip again as its still sort of due.

I played the other day £80 of full (with N/C) and it took £30 to get off SH then next board gave green series which I took for £12 then next board SH for pot again.

Was a good result which I thought had no chance as it was not really streak due.

Theese machines are still massive money makers I only have 2 around me and they are 40 minuites drive away.

1 is in an old mans pub, funny thing is with it being in ******** I thought alot of players would be taking it out....I seen him forceing when it was offering £5+ and him and all his mates were just like getting skill stop and hitting Bonus nudges to avance up the trail, even though set ups were their for the taking.

Really love this machine, best run to date £130 (first out) worst loss £3

JP on these can be gained for profit from 3 nudges starts
Not always though
Green shot gives cash run and NW when dead
No way to tell whether the roll is there
£7-£8 for the next board means nothing
Can still be 4/5 nudging from here

Use the shuffle wisely
I know players who shuffle too much
If its shuffling the grape on the left reel in straight away and the pear on reel 3
Do not shuffle from here
This is the set up
If its a long way off reel 2
It will happily give you the nudges needed when ready
Higher than a 4 lower than the 9 it does most of the time for me

Depends what your happy with
Sometimes i play for the next board sometimes not

Also if you land the £25 cash shot then the board is 'open'
This is the red series board

JP'd 3 last night all within £15

No its not it can offer £25 on the red trail and still bump you off, it does not 'open' the machine....its kind of like YDD when the cashpot reaches £25 depending if it wants to or not.

Can kill and take another £15 from that point quite happilly

I'd say one of the best signs to continue playing after a JP or RS is when it offers Nudge Gamble on the reels - and especially if the gamble wins and either the £5 (strawberries) or the £7 (double bars) are lurking nearby. There are some really obvious setups on the reels for these and you can be fairly certain whether or not the gamble will allow the reel win before you even press the button. The board resulting from such a good re-entry often pots.

Gotta say that Mr.Red is right about it when it offers the £25 shot ON THE FIRST BOARD after a JP, it always seems to go up to Red Series. It's probably the only time you can safely get away with gambling for it. As we all know, when you've been playing and building up to a top, it'll offer the £25 shot a couple of times and then die before going to RS. But on the board after a JP, you're fairly safe.

Suffice to say, all my TAWs have vanished and long since been replaced.
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

Yeah the board after a pot or RS but I am talking just in the first instance for example.
Even after the first pot or RS it can still kill you on the next board if pot has being offered.

OK nice one.

Kinda wish i'd been playing these ages ago.i've been passing them on my rounds for a good year or so now.

Main reason is that i was told the way to play them ages ago was go for JP and it should flash within the next 2 boards. That was bollocks.

Didn't hear about all this supehold stuff until relitively recently. Shit.

Only just had one of these arrive in my local, searched the previous posts on hear because had read that it was a good machine to play. I'm not on the rounds as much as i used to be but thought i would have a little play on this one.

anway i played for the 'setup' Mr Red explained which is Grape on left reel pear on right but i kept finding the machine bumping me off whenever i nudged these reels in, it eventually gave me a JP off nudges which then proceeded to give me a 'wobbling board and a few boards after a JP off SH.

So still a good run :) ended up with £92 in bank this was after some guy took £12 out before me but not sure how much he had put in.

Still not sure what the setup does though Mr Red can you enlighten me.

All in all one of the best machines i've played for a while.

Cheers

Midlands anfield :wink:

forgot to mention it was the program where it collects when JP is nudged in, still streaks well though so not sure why they altered the JP collect perhaps once it was nudged in on the original program it was easier to obtain RS only a speculative thought though :)

Sorry think i explained it badly

What i meant was
Say you get 5 nudges and it brings the grape on the left and pear on the right, i know people who will shuffle out of this, as they need too many nudges for the middle reel

No real need to, as you can gain more and bring the middle reel round using the hi or lo to good effect

So if you land nudges on a 1,2,3,4,9,10,11,12 and your first shuffle brings in something close to this keep it

Then go hi or lo for more
You will find that if you still need more it should land on them again when happy like this
Always take nudges from skill stop as well

Not really a 'set up' just a good lay out when its 5 nudging
Also when you get trail boost from bonus keep it
Use it too early, and it will give the superhold before you have set it up

Hopefully this explains it better :P

Thanks Red :)

yeah noticed some guys on it before me was using the trail boost to fill the trail to 'Red Zone' what a waste :roll:

gonna leave this a week or so to recover, have you noticed any real differences on the original program and the one which collects JP when nudged in?

I agree, there's no difference.

Regarding nudges and set-ups: I played one once which had a broken shuffle button, when ready it just kept giving me nudges to obtain the JP - getting a seemingly lucky shuffle with a nice amount of nudges for a SH JP is not a rip, it more than likely would have given you another chance of getting a JP.
