Â£500 gambles

Quick question - out of all of you that play the £500 machines (i.e Rainbow Riches, Elvis, etc...), how many of you actually gamble your winnings on that disc thing?

What you think of it - i'm not convinced...

how many times have you hit the gamble button instead of collect by accident?

i usually "save" everything apart from about 10 -20% of the win, and gamble it to see if i can double the remainer up a couple of times...

from 50p win to 500 in 3 steps at max odds is possible......

this is on the crest 777,this machine is not compensated (is says random ,so it MUST be true) ,now if it was compensated ,youd imagine some kind of progression on either the gamble or the line wins,i suspect that the gamble MUST be fixed ,otherwise there's absolutely no chance of it running to near percentage from rng seeds ,now someone please step in with the facts

i'm sure the gamble is random - after all, it does look like true odds, which means that it would only ever pay to 100% anyway - i.e if you're gambling from £10 to £50, you have a 1 in 5 chance of winning, and if gambling from £12 to £15, you would have a 4 in 5 chance of winning.

i'm pretty sure thats how it works, as the maths work for it to be random that way - just wanted to know if anybody risks it? or has turned 50p into £500 - most i've done is 50p to £380.

Tell me you spelt motErway wrong on purpose!

And why shouldn't i play 500's? Don't do too bad out of them. Least i've got just as much chance as everyone else of winning the jackpot, or a high win... haven't got to worry if some chav w*nker's emptied it cos they've found some stupid manipulator...

I'll stick to the fruits thanks, £500'ers are for addicts with no fruit skills.

too right, why play things where you have no edge over the common granny...

(honestly yes I played these in the past and lost grands on them before learning my lesson to keep off them :P )

Wha t a fking load of bollocks matt. Your more of an addcit than me. And yep i love the 500s. The only thing you dont like is coz us Fruity players are not playing your shit hi techs. Now tell me why im an addcit ? And also tell me what skills you have lmao. Remember this matt.Without the internet you would be lost. p.s I am no addict but i do love playing 500s . And i can %100 honestly say I have never had it so good since they have been out. I have had some monster wining sessions and Never any big losses no more (i limit myself 50 to 1 machine) Now i never once had a monster winning session in 10 years since the 500s.So BIG UP TO 500s. They serve there purpose no fing chavs and player addicts sniffing us out or eyeing up (only out of jealousy when they see 700 in bank lol) Hope this helps you addict mattb.

Nowhere without the net? Yeah, Course not. Despite the fact i started playing these damned machines years before any sites like this turned up. The net and forum is just a tool that has become used because its there. Unlike some people i do actually like the social side of things and have met a few people on here, planning to meet 3 more in the next few weeks, which is one reason i like this site. Generally friendly, and i keep in touch with everyone i've met on here so far.
I don't boast of any 'skills' i have, i just get on with the job thanks. £1400 up in the last week, and plenty of effort and mileage (near on 500 this week) done to get it too.

It's got nothing to do with not liking it because people play £500s instead of fruits. If you like playing them, good for you. You carry on.
I still maintain that people who solely play them because they can't win off normal fruits. Why play something where you have no control of the outcome over something you can control?
Yeah you can get lucky and hit it big, but it's like roulette, you will ALWAYS lose in the end if you keep putting money in them. Percentages tell you that. AWPs are different because of their progressive nature, hence you CAN control the outcome. S16s would only get slotted by me for empties.
You couldn't live off £500 S16s, you can off fruits. Argument over. As for your £700 in the bank, that's fine, except you've put a grand in to get it. Boo hoo.
