I used to buzz these up from showing, never had a problem. If it's ready put £30 through killing yourself first gamble, then play for crowns/red treasure.

If it's a £25 try putting £20 through.

stay on nudges, avoid safe wins, if it opens safe board, collect nudges and nudge nothing in.....

if its playing like a cunt, only go across to blue or red sevens... gamble from there..

definitely shouldnt cost 100 if showing..

Yeah I knew players that just used to take red features when buzzing and quite a few times made a good £20 - £30 doing this.

The only thing is when to walk because just at the point u decide to get 1 more feature it might do its classic £10 - £15 for a board.

If ur deciding to push it I'd got for it when ur sure i.e. full not daily re-fill and all red from the start.

If u decide to go for taking wins I'd walk if u could get to £15 clear profit.

agreeing with alpine here, kings ransom and subzero ( ooer controversial ) have been the worst reds ever, and are simply a nightmare to push, would sooner take on a snakes than these, not worth the time spent on em, even if i were to find one untouched in the middle of nowhere, i stil would rather just drain a cpl of wins and move on.

Another problem with machines without nudges is that u can't get away from safe cash.

Anything with nudges I do what Spyder said and stay on nudges side until I get blue / red sevens then switch over. with Ransom / Sub Zero u can't get away from it.

Thats a good thing about FNC - u can keep gambling safe cash until it loses. Nice.

you could wait till its all red-ish, then pump it a bit, just stay off the board and run £20 worth of credits through, hold to avoid getting wins, sack off boards on first gamble...

but id never risk doing that personally, seems a bit silly... but it could work??
