Fruit Machine Chat

Had this m/c replace a VIU had a quick search and foun nothing on it here looks quite old anyone played it or remember it?

yeah, similar to devil of a deal isnt it? four columns, you have to light four macthign ones on a line to get that feature?

Loves let em spins, low features are all good, if these are only offering 1-2 pounds, walk. dont force, streak comes as part of frequent winnings. Ill shut up now until you confirm i even have the right machine.

Yeh thats the 1, never played it personally as i dont go in there often just asking poeple what they knew if anything. Never seen feature go higher then 7 mind ( its cards m/c 1, 2, 3 etc to queen king ace then joker so 15 features in all)

Any good signs to look for?

Yeah, this one of the:

Card Shark
Devil Of A Deal
Rat Pack
Jumping Jokers
Jackpot Jokers

series of clones. Boring as feck to play, and don't really have anything more than a £50 run in them. These old vivids rigidly block cash amounts, and will usually gamble up to the block you've reached every time after reaching it once (barring cack numbers etc). If its cash gambling to melons, then its there for a force. Another good sign is feature 4 going up to £5. If it's only getting £2 on this, its burnt. Force the JP, hope it repeats or flashes after. Pants basically.

the name flashes red at the top for the IM..... unmissable really. just play for beer money and hope for an IM. also never seen 2 IM boards on the trot and it has always gone pretty dead for me after the IM. had this in my local for 3 months and never seen it do consecutive IM's.

not 100% this is case but i've never had it.

I don't agree with playing these like other vivids, or gambling the cash to high amounts. You can tell if its dead as fuck as the reels spin quite a bit faster, steer WELL clear at this point, can be as bad as reds in giving a board if this is the case. frequent £3+wins form the low features and frequent features are the key, it will give you let em spin nearly EVERY time on sevens of feature icons, build up a decent bank (any where between 30 and 60) and very often it will drop in an IM, with a possible repeat (1 in 4 or so). as Eddie says, row in a row is unheard of, and IM often kills it dead.

Reminds me of snake rattle and role when it was buzzing; TONNES of features every 25-50p and builds up a bank very quickly.

Bad signs is the features from 3-6 offering nothing but 1 or 2 pounds; WALK.

finally, if you start the feature at a 1or 12 collect whatever feature youre offered and gamble on the numbers.

I dont remember ever losing more than £5 on these, find them very easy to read, especially with reel speed. play with the mystery nudges well (any three bars) and you should be fine.

Did anyone ever MT a devil of a deal???

I done a few of these a couple of years back. Was quite complicated but just wondered if anyone had ever done one?

Tom

seen rat pack done, cost 70ish too achieve?

Wasnt a very good MTR, as it cost so
much 2 buzz up & find out if chipped or
not, unless u got a spawny flash which
gave u 50 back anyway! Never got a
DOAD 2 work but MT'ed a few RP's and JJ's.

as said above mystery nudges are the ones to go for quite often can find £10 wins if have 4 nudges to start with.

does the old card shark method work on the clones??

No Card shark method doesn't work

There was an empty for Jumpin Jokerss and Ratpack involving getting a certain feature "red" to repeat and then gambling all fruit wins to JP. There was a bit more to it than that but I doubt you'll get an unchipped one

Nah all chipped up now bar harrys chippy and kebab shop
