On A Roll, Nasty!

Right.....erm....well....
Tried a board, up to a tenner, next board, red hi-lo offered on a semi red board. Full. 40 in for a flat 25, next board all red, kills me, get about 50 in all togther, another flat. Next board red again, it's taken about 100 all togther now and goes flat again. Now i'm annoyed. Next board dead so I have to re-chase, costs 200odd quid (all together) for a 50 followed by a 25 then lots of tenners, toggles, quids in etc. Leave it with about 125, now how can I expect that lol!

People say we all never post about losing? Well...Got some of it back to be fair, a nice holy moley, nudge tricked a daunting for 15, and a few other milks here and there, anyone else had this with this machine?

played this last friday, walked in the pub and someone is playing it on mega spins but when he gets a bonus he is'nt keeping his finger on start [for number runner] so i know he's not a player, watch him do about £40 and walk leaving it full. it was'nt redding but knowing it can show anytime i try £10 on normal game. after the 10th pound i get a slow down bonus for NR which is nice because i'm not on mega spins and i get £25, too cut a long story short it lost going higher then a 3, i finished forcing out the top after about £60 in that went £25 and died on its arse. so from being £15 up i lost the best part of £40 which was roughly my days profit. if i had the same situation again i would still gamble the 3... that can go £75 and its job done. i think most on here would have gone on the 3 too??

i've had a few occasions now where i've been suckered into the force because its shown NR??? not always the best sign for me

i know what your saying, but after watching the guy do £40ish i thought it would be ok, one bad decision on reds and it has you over. never mind

You prob had a number runner end of streak where the m/c only wants to offer 10/15 quid win to fininsh it off.

If i read that right you got £25 from NR then lost to top
Then it cost £60 for a £25 then dead
I would have forced out another top every time in that situation
These do cost a lot for the top and if they do £25 i always go for another whether they show or not
They do a staggered streak which can be £30+ apart
The next top should have been £50/£75
Usually it pays off

It could have been just that way out, if you know what i mean, as all reds can do the nasty stage now and again
But i would always force another top if i was a lot in from showing and it did £25

As for Crosby that sounds like a genuine red nasty day
Had that a few times £25,£25,£25 etc it can happen, good you got most back though

Yeah they can play very dirty. I rechased a Rocket Money 6 times a few weeks ago cos it kept going flat! Took a £40 hit in the end, it happens.

On a happy note, got a good £175 streak from a new OAR here yesterday (set to arcade mode, probably streak more i'd guess).

£25 top
£50 top
£25 top
£25 green box Stop n Step
£15 Blue sevens
£18 Star Choice
£8 Quids In
£10 Toggle

Finished about £90 up from that one machine! Still doesn;t beat my £200+ streak from the other OAR here, but i really do like these a lot. Never seem to go flat, ever!

Hmm, I'd clarify this further by saying that it's only true if it doesn't let you get to a minimum of Blue Sevens. There's of course still some debate about wether it 'sticks and slips' sometime...

NR only means the board is ready for £15/10, not streak ready/jp ready, although it is usually the case that the latter is true. The only sign they are ready to streak is the obvious one..

I've finally found a £35 On a Roll, and the 50p stake button wasn't working.

At 30p stake/Mega Spins, it consistently played around the £4/5/7 mark, then blocked. Once it let me through the £10 block, it never stopped.

First top cost me £40 for a flat £35, then a second top costing a further £63 but going for £70. I tried another board but it was all green and dead, so finished up roughly even.

I have to say Nixxy i found this not too bad when i had one a while back on £35
Did get stung once, but i did get a £105 then a £35 from it once
Sadly gone now replaced by FNC £35 which i still say is terrible on £35 JP
I find the FNC £25 version much better

The £35 On a Roll is in a terrible pub, right next to a busy railway station and has players tripping over each other to play it. I can't really monitor it either because it's not on my route between work and home. But comparing it to a 50p/£25 On a Roll which I CAN monitor, I can see how it's a nice little regular earner.

Played FNC tonight on 50p/£25 and it rolled nicely - two tops (£25 and £50) costing approximately £67 with odds'n'ends in between giving a £40 profit. Never seen, let alone played the £35 version...

That said I'm starting to notice more £35 JP machines locally since Gordon Brown brought the rate of duty down for £35 JP in the budget to the same rate as £25 machines.

been on this today. didnt have much coin on me so i collected what i could. got onto the board,only 2 red features,luckily landed on one of them,penny falls,so i took it. now im really shit at this,3 goes and i went too early on the first 2. anyway..... to my disbelief, i hit the 25 pound. its a first for me. anyone else done this ?? mite be just me - a bit shit. i guess some of you can do it every go ?

stuck a few more in and took a red hi-lo feature, for 16 quid...

i wanted to carry on but need the money so i left it. watched a guy put 10/ 15 back in only to offer green features all the time..
