Strange play

Had a bit of a funny one yesterday on crazy cobra.

Anyway it was 2 pound off full but i only had like 40 on me so a force was out of the question.

The first board showed one or 2 reds, but i just tested to see how far it would go.

Got to 3 on a 7 and won the gamble which then awarded me that so called 'super bonus'. Gave boost and too my amazement it boosted the whole way to the top?! Flat 25, ahh well.

The little shit proceeded to take 30 odd quid for a board which was all green bar one and killed first touch. Next board mostly red so i think its gonna go up again, anyway overall ended up collecting star choice red when i had like 5 left quite gutting. Had 13 left and stuck it on the next favourite at 3-1, 52 return.

So off i go to X-Rated, again this costs about 3 for a top (25) and next feature goes all red x's and offering 5rpt and x-callibur.

Intention was to take the 10+ rpts to kill it and leave with a very nice profit. Cost 30 for the first 10 rpt even though it was still red x-ing and giving good feature shots. At that stage it was a clear reforce so got notes changed up thinking il be fine anyway.

Cost another 35 from there :shock: for damn, another 25. Next board wasnt red x-ing but gave 15 on a 4 hmmmm lose.

Thankfully a few boards later it gave that same 15 gamble which won and went flat yet again, a few boards later and walked away with about 20 profit.

Not an impressive day, kinda kills a bit of confidence in the reds which up until now have pretty much performed as expected.

Anyway hows everyone doing over christmas? Bars here are absolutely packed with shoppers passing through for a quick pint. Machines get so ready to quickly :wink:

3 SSS off £30 after you took £90 you must have not killed it off in the slightest mate.
Must have still being on the streak or wanting to offer a quick £10 or SS.

maybe though didnt fancy risking any more think i was only about evens after all that.but he never got the first skillstop till about 15 or so in
then next two did follow not long after.he was just recycling crappy wins.even watched some lad aswell get on the board all red bar one was on 3 nudges with no win available or boxes lit up on a 9.and still no idea why took the 3 nudges where he bought in 3 random fruits.

Played a pulsation last night

First 3 boards were green
Then a red one came but died first gamble
Then greens for a bit then red again dead first gamble

Then a green one which i went higher than the three for bonus 10
It then lit the name in one go and hit every £10 note at the top for £60

Never seen this before anyone else???

Invincible isn't exactly old. Stack attack - maybe. There are more and more of these turning up near me which is always good. Had an invincible give a 25 followed by a 75 and then 25 off SS and 25 off notation. Made over a ton on it. However, played a stack attack the same day and after number running, and SSS with the first 10 quid in, it cost 60 for a 25, followed with 30 back in for a 50 and then 30 in again for a 75. Got really worried at one point but it all ended up quite nicely. :D

Pulsation does some weird shit.

The other night: Dropping (pub doesn't refill), quarter-red, blocking at £7, cheap boards. Takes £30 for first top (£10). Goes virtually all red. Takes the lot back and some. £20 top. Takes it all back and some. £10 top. Still showing 75% red and hitting stuff like Star Choice red, so there was value in there somewhere. I'm £100 in and still no proper top, nothing above that one £20. No notey, I'm out of coins and, as I regretably find out, so is the bar. Tried sucking a bit back with my last few quid to no avail. Had to walk. Gutting but serves me right for not carrying enough coins. But the weird thing is I've never seen one showing for so long without streaking or allowing a suck from features.

Ouch, that must of hurt. Not one of my favourite reds this, has a habit of giving continuous £10-£20 tops. They do go big but don't seem to do it as often as LT.

iv never really had hardly any decent tops on this.60 once from all blue 10s and a 50 once where all the notes were red for two 25s.other than that 35 and 25 but mostly 10s just tend to leave most of these with only 10 tops.been burnt too often

Best result i have had on one of these is a £90 top from £20 in
Hit every note 2 reds and four blue

For me they are too long winded for the force, recycle force blah blah blah

They can go massive, I've had the £90 a few times - £20 to start then next board on next credit £70. But they are just too long and risky, I probably won't go near one unless 99% red from now on.

Dynamike - that crappy prolonged period of no tops ... I've had that too. It shows every sign that it's gonna progress that little bit further, and .. and.. and.. then it doesn't.

It's an absolute bastard when it does that and it can happily chew on over £120 in, even if the majority of it went over the back.

When it does finally relent, it tends to give a £40 top from 4 blue notes; take half of it back and then do a couple of consecutive big boards (like a 50 and a 70, or similar). But by then you've lost the will to live, and you sure ain't enjoying yourself anymore.

Yeah, I saw your old post in another Pulsation thread earlier :) You're right with that last line too, big time. I get fed up with Reds when I'm on them for so long, even when they go huge and I make on them I'm beyond caring.
