Crazy Reels and Mega Streak are essentially the same feature, so when you take EITHER of them, there's no way of knowing what the other would've done. It'll offer you JP on the cash side more often than it will Crazy Reels on the feature side, I my guess is that it'd pay you about the same whichever you take. So, yeah - you probably did the right thing. The 13 quid afterwards was the wrong thing!

If you're uncertain about what Crazy Reels can offer, it once gave me £53 on platform 4 at Woking station. On a 72% machine. Voila!

if i got offered knockout skill from the off id of took it,its £20 but if you were after forcing i always prefer crazy reels ive had nothing but flat £25 from the mega and i have noticed when it goes im it forces you to take the ms of the shots,implying that it isnt ready to give the extra crazy reels gives.........

I agree, trouble is 'The highest single prize in any one game will not exceed £25' So no feature ever 'has' to go over that unfortunately...

i played saturday, and was offered £8 on my first cash shot. decided to carry on and ended up forcing until i hit the mega streak.... £25 and not a penny more. cheers. Having seen crazy reels mentioned on here i decided to keep trying for that the next time i was on the board. It was in a pretty good mood as i had rejected £25 on the cash shots 3 times before i got my crazy reels. Went for £41 :lol: Cost me £40 to get £66 out, but worth it. Passed a bit of time in the pub too.

I find unless the ms comes quick(which is usually flat) forcing for the cr always leaves some extras for the taking at least a few highs and lows :shock:

See, this is what i dont understand. Yeah, fair enough a feature isn't allowed to exceed £25, but how come crazy reels will go for more than £25?

A thing know as a 'credit break' will happen if you get to £25 on Crazy Reels (or any streak-type feature), whereby if you still have credits in the machine, it will take one of them from you. Thus, you are now on a new 'game' so can win £25 off of that.

'Game' in this term means one spin of the reels or one credit of play.

Easy. £108 worth of wins from a streak, or players using notes not coins, there're plenty of possibilities...
