as anyone else had this scenario before on bullseye
i got to the end game and was offered the £6 gamble off the £2 win
i gambled and won and it gave me £8 instead of £6
not sure if this is a fault in the program or just a freak occurence
to get the 101 gamble i hit 25,25 then 60.

Yes, as gcmkee says, this was originally a programming bug on all pound-play Bullseyes, but has been updated on most cabinets now. I understand, though, that there remains quite a few venues where the bug still works.

I'd spend more time teaching gmckee03 to write English if I were you. That way he might have a sporting chance at Word Up
Oh, I'm so scared.
