The only tip is don't play it. They somehow managed to take an already ropey game (Chart Quiz?) based on two pretty rubbish originals (Golden Boot and Bling Bling) and make it even worse! I have never seen this one in anything remotely close to paying mode anywhere and the fact that the Cashpot is never more than about £1.60, after presumably being set to start at £1 on installation, is an indication that no one is playing the game more than once or twice. Seriously, even in a time of plenty of really poor games this one still stands out. If games were football teams this would be East Stirling!

Veering off topic, I had an interesting Bling Bling experience at the weekend. I got all five lives, which was in my experience *extremely* unusual and then very swiftly got enough points and double or quits options to make it up to £4. After that it stopped giving very much and eventually, when down to three lives, I decided to collect as it struck me it'd be very easy to lose even three lives on the trot. Anyone encountered Bling in such a kind mood? On reflection I suspect I should have ploughed on to see whether it would have given me the pot.
I agree entirely re Golden Boot 2 by the way. Golden Boot 1 was quite mediocre but Golden Boot 2 is, from first plays, far worse.

I once won £10 from the original Golden Boot, which was such a rare and unexpected occurrence that I can even remember exactly where it was (O'Neill's in Watford), but never reached such dizzy heights on Bling Bling and have long since given up on it.
Funnily enough one of the things I found most irritating about both of those ones was having to constantly wait for the animated confirmation of each correct answer, unlike say on Millionaire or Deals on Wheels where you can tap the screen after each correct answer to speed up the process - not something the ordinary punter would notice/care about but the sort of nice feature that more regular players appreciate!
