My god, the most crazy thing i've seen in ages involved one of these yesterday.

Doing a hit in town with dunham and pickareel, saw the CADD had £1.50 of cherries on the lines. 2 of us said leave it, but dunz puts in £1 and it carries on a mega streak! What the hell!? Carries on and does £20. Some idiot had left it at the £25 credit break and left £20 of streak on there, whoops! £3 board straight after, so £2 in and £23 out for the easiest win ever! :shock:

:o ops:
Naa in my experience it still normally takes £30 ish to even offer jp and that's when its backing from the start.

Far from my favourite, although when streat finally comes in makes it all worthwhile most of the time.

I wouldn't have done it tbh, with those kind of machines, with a win on the line, you expect its gonna cost for the board, so in general it isnt worth it - although 1 in a million you may get something like that I suppose!

Managed to find one ready today showing £8 red first board
Cost me £20 to go IM

Got it a strange way too
Had a 4 and 2 even bonus' already
Higher than the 4 gave me a cash shot on an even number think an 8 so skill bonus
The cash shot went true skill
I already had 4 symbols so took the egg, then the skill bonus for the final egg for IM

But best of all it did £75 :shock:

2 mates of mine had the skill shot for the final egg yesterday. it went for a nice 50 off about 20/25, i'm really starting to like this machine, can be annoyingly off its trolley with readyness and you know it's not that board which is shit, but it's easy to read, and likes to go 50/75!

p.s Had a 45 mega streak on this the other day, as if it couldn't spare 5 more measly pounds!

Got to say i'm really enjoying these at the moment.

On the 50p option they seem to play nice all the time, and give MS fairly cheaply, and they are mostly fairly massive.

Chased one yesterday, and it cost £21 to get a £50 MS. Today cost me £40 for a £50 MS. Still showing i reforced it, and it took £30 more for a £36 MS. Just a brute force from £4 will do the trick. You can also trap these quite nicely if you think about your hot numbers, number of red eggs, what numbers give what shots etc.

Completely cornered one today. Already had 2 red eggs and 2 even numbers on a no lose 8. 10 or 12 would have been a skill bonus for the IM......9 was enough shots for the MS, and 11 was the egg. Gave me an 11, and MS was there for the taking. Nice!

Had a nasty one of these today, 35jp, took 80 for MS, went flat, even though first board gambled to 6 pound and offered red hi-lo, and win streak, 34 back in and got MS, went for 55, next 2 boards dead as a doornail, 35's are simply a whole new ball game, you can't prise anything, and they seem amazingly programmed.
