They do like a cash grabber from the COB good for £20+Mattb wrote:If its not offering the DOND then its dead. Its pretty easy to spot when these have no life in them anyway.
Not really worth touching as they can go £10+ for a board and then offer no more than £2
You then hit COB and you get lose
But they can be looking very dead and then just throw in high wins from COB
Yeah thats your only hope when its dead - a good COB. Same as beat the banker, which can throw in all of the high ones (£15rp which can go to £45, £25 cash, cash grabber, win stepper, super streak, mega streak). Only value is when its offering natural jiggy bank boards, nearest win or climbing up to £4+.

Just battled one of these in a local haunt, god knows why but it cost so much for my first board I had to try another one....
long story short........
60 in one board offered above £2. Few cobs rendering nothing but jiggy bank wins. £64 in super board got £3 in my box which repeated to £12. Nexct board cost £15 - GATW - FLAT yes FLAT £35 and no GATW next board then started playing a bit better odd super board and nice cob for £25, ended up making £2!!
But surely the GATW that came along must of been its 'natural' run, I mean it showed absolutely no life at all and then GATW, not forced from buzzing so why flat? CYBTB natural GATW's normally double break for between £60 - £100.
It just seems that 75% of boards on these are blocked at £2 quid. Why? 50p a go surely a £5 block is more suitable? Or does the cob feature make these so god damn wank, just because a good cob comes around every few hundred in credits?

I read somewhere about it taking around £3k to go through it in between the 'proper' GATW streaks. Bellfruits pi$$ me off when they give flat out-of-the-blue GATW's because you always end up putting half your win back in to find out it was playin with your ar$e. :x
Off topic but, not so long ago I was £15 into a Big Red when it started offering £15 cash shots, decent features, and mega shots, hi-lo'ing on most numbers, so I went for the force. It took £70 for a GATW - flat £35. Several boards later still no sign of it, it did end up giving me a £35 DOND game (no repeat) a couple of other wins from DOND and a CoB. Ended up £122 in for £108, so it wasn't too bad, wasted best part of an hour though.
Thats Bellfruit programming for you, but I wouldn't say no to a £35jp Cop The Lot, Rich Geezer or a WWTBAL.

It's not always guaranteed. I've got a local 20p/30p 4 reeler. I had an inkling it might be due. £33 off full. There are a couple of flavas as well which hint it may be due.
basically £55 in for £40 back for DOND boards and then a COB to cash combo for £15. Normally you'd leave, but I just **felt** a GATW was around the corner.
£4 back and it's a £2/50.50 then the rollercoaster comes off the rails board.
£2 more and nudges to 4 boxes in view for super boost.
"I want you to get a lot of money"
Thanks. My intuition was spot on.
I know this must be a non forced one, so it's a bloop.
£25, credit breaker, £33, got up to hmmmm......£60ish I think. Just shy maybe, three credit breaks. So there's every chance of your bonus £33 next board from the flash.
Next board, no flash, £2/mystery, COB for £10 cash (wouldn't have cobbed without prior flash) then just back to being dead(ish).
We all know go hammer for tongs and the forced GATW will be the £33 or whatever, but it seems the bonus GATW can sometimes be as low as £33. Usually plays a bit afterwards though, boost up the other.
If you get the full fat GATW, you'll not usually get extra in the main. It's usually whatever you had before and then it plays like a bastard. Awkward as hell. £5 cobs.
Took it on a month or so back. £20in deadish and a reliable face tells me it has double flashed. Third hold rip for boxes. Joy of joy as MS is in box. Just have to get the darn thing. 4 boxes left, on a 3 (just had [2] eliminated boxes), higher........for a 2.......thinking this is it......hi hihihihihihihihihih..........1. Thanks a bundle. Took me in for the long game, plus it feels like short term 60% return on an 86% machine. It's like it saves HARDER for the GATW when it has just gone.
I also used to think that the happier the main one, the more predisposed it would be to giving the double. I say that as 'done' p1 wiybs would only ever flat £35 from the red phones. When the p2s first came out, I played one with value (£4 ws white) and fluked a flash.....£90......nice. Also the pause chip p1s would sometimes give a single £42 flash or something like that, lord knows why. Perhaps not everyone could do the p1 pause chips?!? I don't know.
I guess being local, it's convenient and you chance your arm once in a while. I think this is a sort of machine where you need a bit of history (talking about CYBTB and variants now). Take one on for scratch and prepare for the chance of an expensive board. Especially C&R which is 50p only. Last four GATWs I've had on this machine have all been singles. IN fact come to think of it, I've never had back to back flashes on CYBTB! I've had a few double/triple breakers. Back to back on wiyb, p5 and 4 reel.

Had a nice result on one the other day
£2 in gives £15 from NW repeats to £45
£5 later COB does £25 then a COB for streak for £8
And another COB streak for £13
About £15 in for £91 back
Although as already discussed these can cost for boards and this is why, sometimes its best to leave them
I personally board them look for the NW if not coming just COB them and hope to make
Its easy to get sucked in though so you need good discipline on them
Even if it means taking a £20 hit sometimes you have to leave them or you find yourself £50 in for that £15/£25 win
All about choice
Any one else bother with these for a board???
