Stack Attacks can be nasty. A RK is needed and be aware of float days.

Not my fave- eats bloody pound coins at an alarming rate, if salvageable after 3-4 squid I normally take my toggle climb and get out with 5/7

Ive played a £5 10p Stack Attack at one of my local arcades, took £14 for a board all features red but 1 then dead on nudges then it took another £5 for a board which payed £4.

I was not happy! Never playing it again.

SA is a very good machine. When you catch a few you will understand what i mean. I totally agree about them takingthe piss, but to be fair what red doesn't???? Theres blocks on GADD, LAB, DNA, X-RATED, SA, INVINCIBLE, AFTERSHOCK, the list goes on and on. If you can't hack losing 32 in a machine, due to a red sucking then you shouldn't be playing them at all!!!!

These tend to take the piss that bit more though. They can be all red to start, number runnering and skill shotting with and still cost you £70 odd for a MS, which i've had a couple of times. None of that baloney on LABs really!

I have had LABs block for 70. It depends on what state they are in. They can be red featuring from the off which still doesn't mean anything. Sometimes it doesn't even let you have 'feature shot' or if it does it will offer a pretty shit feature. Even a good feature e.g. FTP etc can be only a 5er.

I know what you mean though.

Dropping last night in the local- no one in it that plays so I stuck £10 in before I got first board, offered me sod all basically ended up £14 down on it.

Not my favourite.

Sometimes these can throw an all red bar one board in, after its cost loads for the board

I once played one that was full, cost me £15 and the board was green nothing then £2 later an arb1 board
Cost a further £20 for the top, does the £75

Sorry should have pointed that out, made me look a bit silly.

Didn't go out with much £ and didn't go to the atm first, normally its not a problem but it's the only pub without an atm en route.

Not my fave anyway, still should have had the means to gone for it I know.

Why would a machine that is backing make you play it anyway?

State of play takes way more consideration than backing.

backing doesnt mean shit! Like said, state of play is important. Reds 'come alive' so easy though, one board they can be all green , the next all red. You need to look at more in depth signs such as the numbers on the reels its offering, bonus's , gambles on numbers etc etc.

More experience on these, will help loads. You will lose and you will win sometimes. Part and parcel unfortunantly!!!
