Doin' a BTB

So i've got a BTB, £25 pot 125 hopper, however they'll refill it on the spot so I could just keep going...
About £40 left in it, then I got bust/1p FIVE TIMES in a row, and each board costing £20-25 so its now full, after that I could not regain any money on the machine, boards were regularly costing £15+ and unless it gave £20 or above id be down, the SS/£12/£15 etc would screw me over.
So basically next £300 recycled was 20 in for 15 out on average and whenever it thrown in a humorous bust/1p it would be catastrophic.
Is there a way to get cheaper boards on on a £25er? its 25/50p play.
Ended up leaving it busting + full :/

Don't think so mate, just need a whole lot more luck on £25ers as the boards cost the same, but the COBs aren't worth as much. Stick to the £35ers i reckon, they are a dice with death themselves.....these are just kamikaze!

You can stake switch them Dunhamzzzzzzzzz - Play the credits on the smaller stake and then switch it over to get the roll in on the higher stake, think the 25p a go one is about £10 and £12-£14 for the 30p ones. Before you try one check the no. of credits before it rolls in a board.

Never found value in doing the £25s. As said above always to close to the edge on the COB amounts to make.
Better off with £35s more leeway (if only a little bit)
Didn't realised they stake switched

Why take such a big risk for, lets be honest - hopper size taken into account and cost of boards, not a massive return? Surely their are better, more profitable m/c's out there at the moment.
Crazy, but good luck to you.

Really isn't. Last on my list of fruits to do, just before £25 golden games.
I will experiment with stakes once its recovered,
