Streak pot (LS)

Post by anfield road »

Right as you know I havea unchipped LS and it is so dead its unreal, thing is I seen someone pump through £80 to get it offering £10 and true skill ?s, he went skint and I took £75 off HotShots.

Now I was thinking, nobody has had the Strike It Rich feature yet, and I am thinking is it worth taking a SIR and seeing if it opens up a streak pot or it may well burst when the top feature is achieved.

Or do you think it may just flat £25 it or a possible £35ish

I think you'll find its more than likely dead mate. All value from the machine has been stripped. Kind of like extremes, it just drains all pot value when manips like this happen. Best off just ripping stuff to be honest. 8)

There is a kind of streak pot which comes around VERY VERY rarely. After about a 200 hours+ of play it IM'ed following a big session of bleeding it dry.

Strike it rich done about 40 i believe.

This is majorly broke ours though, it will take say £15 to a board if it wants, let em spins do NOT come round often if they do it just loses. It spins in bonuses every other credit, holds on the trail twice after trying to avoid a normal start board.

It can take £60 to get a hot shot feature, the £2.40 gamble up the features or £3 always seems to lose now back down to the first feature. The start board will either start on a horseshoe or a lucky, then +1 cash then a feature then game over.

This has only started happening since it got IOU'D and I only done that because there was another 3 players hitting it all the time and I caught it £110 off then went to play Bobby Dazzler and it got refilled at the same time.

I think they have lowered a % or they have twaeked something, this machine has nothing on it like Gamestec etc :?

Just rinse it from Hotshots mate. Ain't no need to force bud unless its there. Play for the MT mate and you will continue to make money. If its continuously dead then 1.) Someone else is doing it or 2.) You are playing it too regularly.

Leave it a 4 days and then make a profit. If you keep going back then you will fuck it up for yourself.. I.e. they will either change it or you will get barred.

I've seen this happen too.


If it's still unchipped I wouldn't even consider playing it normally. Before they were getting done by everyone we all knew there was something up with them; before I knew the trick I saw someone do £200 through a LS that was showing £4 cash ladder from the start, he didn't get past the £15 block.

Anfield you hve to make sure you get HS, if you collect feature and try the gamble up/down or take HS and the number spins in 1/12 and you end up taking £1-£3 it will set it back. You have to think the machine is seriously under it's % trying to claw its way back to normal and even the slightest of win will cause a problem.
If you enter the board and there is no way of getting HS then dont bother taking anything. I used to try the gamble on every board regardless of my nudge set up and ended up in the same situation.

Sometimes it will take between £20 - £30 for a guranteed HS but then again you can get lucky and have a few decent let em spins and get HS 3-4 times in £20

Avoid the low wins at all cost

Thats what I do, but getting it to let em spin is very very hard lately. The numbers just fly in, its kind of like a cash beast chip for the numbers(hold reel 2+3 and a 5 comes on reel 1) hold reel 1+2 and a 4 on reel 3.

Im pretty damn sure thats wrong, (well at least when i was doing mine)that was the only way i was able to MT mine, by the low wins if you know your gonna lose on the board.

It helps towards the next board and do you really think its gonna get 'happy' to get hot shot within 20-30 when ypur in a big session, doesnt seem to happen too often like that mate in my experience.

What you describe is exactly how mine was (it was being done daily by a number of players)

How does taking £1-3 help when the boards can cost anything from £5 - £10 ???

IMO taking these small wins can decrease your chances of building up to said feature. The gamble is not a gurantee even if you do set up £2.40 + as a nearest win

I do take the £2.40 wins as they help from getting to deep into the game

Eddie you must be lucky then because I have seen many gamble downs when £3 and even £4 is setup.
It can take £60 to get a hot shot feature, the £2.40 gamble up the features or £3 always seems to lose now back down to the first feature. The start board will either start on a horseshoe or a lucky, then +1 cash then a feature then game over.
Anfield the setup is to allow the gamble from 4 to 5. The idea being the higher the win for STNW the more likely the gamble will work. If you are trying from 1st feature then yes it will probably not even allow you to gamble to STNW

Anyway pay no attention to me play how you like

Cash i think your spot on apart from the fact that the 2 or 3 will be at least something towards the cost of the next board.

I went for months making a fortune off one as anfield describes but it really doesnt affect the likelyhood of getting hot shot taking small wins on losing boards.

And yes it will regularly not gamble to nearest if its 2.40+ but its worth a go, i think about 30% of the time it will. If the nearest win is 1.20 or something just collec rolling stones or whatever its called (money belt)

i must have been very lucky because whenever i have been on pick a prize and the nearest win was £2.40 or above i would just circle the board waitin for my number, then collect feature and it would ALWAYS gamble up too hotshot. never seen it come down in the 1 month i was playin these, I've always thought it was a cert?

lucky me eh.
