I missed a slow Stop n Step today

ops: Just rolled my OAR here for £25/£50, when it gave me a £4 green box board. Missed it and it didn't come back. Devastating!

Not the slow one, it doesn't jump. If it doesn't want to give you SNS it will just bump off giving it you in the first place.
Nothing worse matt, missing that last steal and knowing it may not come back.

Yeah this is true. It does skip though, only on the occasion though. Ive missed a few in my time, normally when im pissed. It is very annoying though, coz its an extra 25/35 in your pocket!!

Love the title of the thread - and agree totally! The only way I've ever had £100 streak from older Reds such as Top Giza was to get a £25 / £50 top followed by another and then a SnS shortly after. I had a bit of a theory that the SnS on TG may have been 'free-ish', or at least from a different pot to the streak one, as it was extremely rare to get over £75 on these, but if you could get a SnS within the streak, you'd get the ton...
Anyway, I'm sure you'll nail it again soon enough...

I certainly find that with the ultra-fast one, I'm either bang-on (love the look on my mates face when that happens!) or way off and hit the tenner (red bar).

SnS definately skips on the newer reds
Had it happen on Piggy Bank after a £105 top
Span me 9 nudges for greens got SnS and it defo skips it
I agree on older ones i dont think it ever did
It was just the natural redgaming slip

Missed one other day was pretty drunk though but still no excuse at all ! ! Think if everyone is honest they have prob missed one at one stage or another.
Also agree that the newer reds def slip.

I also thought about the same OAR skipping once before. It went onto the £4 GM pears, swore blind i'd hit it bang on!
I'm usually ok with slow and medium, have to say i don't even bother trying with fast anymore. Go for the close the eyes and hope sometimes, and i've hit reds before. On the flip side i've hit aplles etc, so its pot luck!
