Fruit Machine Chat

Unbelievable on this the other day.

Must have cycled about £400 through it, initial stake of £90.

Got about umpteeeeen tops, straight forcing, never once hit a red note. Got £30 max from tops and name fills.

Showed £10 from the off too

Lost all £90 going for "one more" top.

What a wanker of a machine!

That amount of losing hasnt happened in a while, but its a £90 I could have spent on worthwhile stuff. Gonna take a break from playing now.

Nothing is sacred no more ops:

edit - oh yeah I was drunk and in a shit mood after england lost (never a good combo!!)

I'm taking a firm stance on these Red 'Tenner-Top' machines. And NOT forcing them. They can be a right bugger, as you found out!

They can be tres annoying as you've said. I've slung £60 through a very well playing pulsation and only come off it £15 up from 4 tops. (£20, £30, £20, £10). Now i know a DNA/LAB wouldn't have pissed me about with all that rubbish! :x

Just bank these up, seems to work better.

When I know they're streaking I tend to do the following:

Push for top off SS/Number Runner/Nudge Win of 7's
Otherwise,
Take Decent Red Features (FTP, HR, £10 SAF),
OR taken Hiddens as when your offered the setup from board.

I dont force them at all now

A mate of mine had one red straight away and it cost him £100 for a £10 top
Then another £15 for a £30 top
And £20 for another £30 top
Then dead

I take features on these
If offered the skill shot i gamble for top from there
You can get a great profit from them this way

Definateley not one for the force

Best result for me was £90 top from £30 in
Which came from a number runner for £10 then higher than the 3

Other than that never had more than £30 in one go

BTW saw one £178 off yesterday

finally seems like your all recognising the nasty side to reds! stop playing them out so much and we'll all be better off

ob - These £10 top ones are definitely not the best and not worth the all-out force! They do have more of a bad side than most other Reds...

it all depends on the way your mcs are played a constant reforce will pay £30 tops for the duration.......id only force a couple of reds the others pull a few tc or whatever its offering for £10 profit......the profile has obviously been changed on reds with the exemption of a few

When pulsation first came out high top wins were quite common even had 85 once. Now though with people always forcing for top, good top wins are now rare. Thankfully I only have one in my area now as most people are stopping playing these including me.

£20 from the top is a bit of a let down.............but,still easy profit to be made........................well up to now

I personally rarely force a top feature from reds these days! the streak potential is massive anyway, from collecting red features, when buzzing, features come in every 1 to 3 quid anyway.
