Cock a doodle dough

Usually safe as houses, but I had one nightmare.

CHUNK full.

Supposedly 86%/92%

This is the strange bit. Giving £5+repeat, basically showing signs BUT taking around £10/board!

Ended up taking £120 to go in for £55 (£35 jackpot).

I finished well down in the end. Approx £55 down from FULL and £5+rep.

Only a one off though.

I probably left a sly £35 in there, but you know when a game is just too much hassle and you've had enough.

Strangely had one of these turn up for a vortex this week. Was already in the pub so i clearly had to play it, trapped it off £29 for the IM (though it was ready anyway), only went £45. Next board unready so scarpered with my small £15 uppage. About the expected return on these surely

I've never seen it say 'chicken' but that's because generally it's all out gung-ho for the top.

Never had too much trouble with these (although naturally, they were a lot better when the +6% was present (getting very rare that, now!))

Best result was £6 in for a £90ms about a year ago.

Worst result was on a £25 one that was flatter than a block of 2D flats!

yes, i was skint after trying to force is and took a red £5. i can't get mega streak on these, get too super streak all time though.

Ouch, becoming skint when you are so close is never, ever a nice feeling!

It is really just common sense this machine, along with a bit of additional thought to trap it into a corner. Use those skill bonii wisely, as they do come around quite often.

Also, watch out for skillstop going all the way up to the £10 mark. I don't know if it gambles to the JP from here, but I've stopped it on the £8 many times, won the turbo and MS'd the board quite often. Of course, it generally has to be flying to do this, otherwise skillstop is not usually more than £2.

All been mentioned before of course, but, well, I'm bored. lol

they have this machine where im at, except it's only 5p play with a £5 j/p.

i tend to play occasionaly, but never really make much money on it. but i suppose it's only a 5p play so what do u expect

have 2 of these left. both have their broken step buttons, so completely useless. happens a lot around here with the breed of players we have.
