There is an unchipped Live The Dream in a London railway station. Only took about £190 to find that out.

Almost every pub I visited in my recent London weekend had STDs!

On the subject of Bank Job Golds, I could swear they've tweaked the program since launch (Amazingly been out nearly a year now) - When they first came out I found the profit / loss margins either £20 - £40 up or £20 down. The last few I've played have always started the 'red run' about £120 - £130 i...

Treasure Island Call Of Booty has had a program update, the pots used to reset to £5 / £10 / £20 but now reset to the random amount, also tells you 'Next board within x spins' or 'Next board will open Treasure Island feature'. Basically a bit like an Alice In Wonderland so they're now complete suici...

Playing with tenners

Does anyone on here play with £10 notes with note payout machines? Advantages : -You look more like a casual sticking a note in -Less heat collecting 'silent' notes rather than the noise of coins (Especially a £140) -Faster to put a (crisp) £10 note in than 10 coins -Can leave a machine stone cold d...

Got 'barred' once for getting caught keying in my local back when I used a key (Manager was with his mates sat by the fruit having a drink!), but been in loads of times since and not even seen him, the one time I did see him he served me so I'm guessing he has forgot now anyway. Got warned once for ...

You can fit approx 150 quid in a Lucozade 500ml bottle.

Recently I've been carrying around a few hundred coins in a sock, which seemed like a good idea at the time until you actually try discreetly getting them back out. The sock just stretches like mad!

I had the infamous 'trapped' IM on Murphy's Millions once. It had me scratching my head for weeks afterwards. Luckily it was for the 3 red phones so no choice required whether to carry on for Mega Streak after a £70 shot.

My good friend got booted out of an arcade for managing to pie a Clover win to £70!!!

Which meant they booted me out too for crime of the century...losing £10 in a couple of machines. Plus the usual 'we've phoned round all the other arcades and submitted CCTV to BBC Crimewatch!'

Jailbreak) Take A Chance Alice (or clone) Rapid Round / DOND Live The worst thing is, some pubs have clones of the above next to each other too! So depressing walking into some places where before you co...

I find these harsher than Alice which is saying something. There really is no method to play these - Collect whatever you want it'll decide to do something totally random the next board anyway most of the time! I've walked into far too many well known chain pubs now only to find Monopoly Takeover / ...

Had one give £139 from a GATW! Also if you do get the GATW and the pot is on 70 you can take the game and in my particular example in span the Cashpot...the first time I had won one so to discover it wasn't 'free' was not great! On another note...I walked into a pub last week and if you can't get en...
