Caught a £34 rip without a board, got on board with 3 red features and lost on £2

Machine was £27 off full in a spoons

I took the loss on the chin and walked

That has gotta be the most I have ever been done on for 1 board

I have had 10-25 pound rips but this just takes it to a new level

Just shows how battered Cardiff City Centre is

Out of town

There are several good runs in different parts of the city.

Unfortunately need a car

It is quite hard here at the minute as there have been no extremes for 4 months but when they were here we had 20+ of em

Plenty of reds but also plenty of players

What day you coming down?

Terrible result on this one yesterday. Was playing in a train station showing all signs straight off. Got up to £25 after about a tenner in lost gamble to top. Thought to myself can't be to long till it pays the top ! ! !

Anyway cut a long story short bandit died on its arse for some reason!! Ended up putting £60 in and taking a single £25 back (Stop n Step slow speed) as I had to rush for my train..................

I'm new to the red world, just got a HM and have heard good things about it, played it a few times both times been playing well, got blue sevens off 12 nudges and a one to take me to red sevens with an all red but one board, took this as wasn't much into it and didn't have much cash on me, just wondering what's the chances it would have done top from a ten? Obviously it wasn't too far away but as i said couldn't afford to risk it at the time, what's the very most you think it could have taken for top from this point?

Cheers.

If its redding with no wins on it'll take about £20 tops to force out the top. This machine doesn't tend to red up until it's only a few quid away from going.

If you get on the board and it's a low win, will the amount of reds always be low? I've only ever seen arb1/2's on high amounts, 10, 15, 25 and the such. I guess you judge wether to push on considering the amount of reds you have on these amounts and nothing else? i.e 4 reds on cherries means nothing, or 4/5 greens on 15/20 means quite a way to go?

In general the higher the win on, the more reds that show. However when I'ts ready to go It'll show ARB1 boards with no wins at all on.

On the contrary, lots of red features when high wins are there are irrelevent. You need to see ARB1/2 when you have a sub £2 win with no lines available, and from a low amount of nudges too preferably. As gambogaz says, the optimum thing to see is ARB1 when you have 1 nudge and no win available. Also the number of red features shown is not at all indicative of how close it is to gambling to the top, it's merely a way of telling you that the streak is there. Once you've established that it's genuinely showing red features then you'll still need to push it out for the initial top feature, the cost of which is dependent on how the machine is playing in general, i.e. if it's gambling past a tenner then it shouldn't be too far away but if it's not going past a fiver then it could still cost a fair bit (gambling past a fiver means actually hi/lo-ing through it, autonudging say a £10 win and then losing on the first gamble does not count).

If it is genuinely showing then there are no blocks, you are just being unlucky if you lose on £5 or £10. They can as you say take an age to get the top but this is just losing the hi-lo chances not blocking.

Gaz, if it is only costing you £20 max to force out a top then you are being very lucky. Had numerous cost over £50 before, these more often than not result in bigger tops though.

Only had the 1 Holey moley on £35 to give my experience from. And that has been and gone within 5 weeks. Probably because I battered it each weekend so was permanently shit. The £20 max is from a red board. Other reds show and take the piss but like you say they then go huge anyway. It's just on this 1 as soon as the red board appeared it either went that board or the next couple.
