Never won a jackpot on a £70 machine

I'm your typical chump fruitie player who knows how the games works but doesn't have any inside knowledge. Whenever i'm in a pub i'll happily stick a tenner in - maybe £20 if i'm feeling it.
I don't know how long the £70 jackpot machines have been out now but in all the years that i've been playing them i've never won jackpot. Like I said I only have a tenner maybe once or twice a week - but you'd think in this time I should have hit one right?
Bad luck? Not playing them right? Rigged machines? Getting done over by other people emptying them (mentioning no names . . )?
Any tips/advice welcome.

Wow, thats some record, you would think most regular punters would get lucky with a £70 cash or bust or a £70 box on DOND.

I think the most i've ever got in one win was £40 - and that was a cash or bust. I've won about £80-90 in one night before but that was 3 separate wins.
I must have lost a small fortune over the years. I really don't know why I still play them as it must be maybe 1 in 10 times (probably less) that I end up ahead.
I did kind of win jackpot when I was with a mate who put a quid in a machine and I said i'd go in with him. He got GOTW on his first spin and, to his credit, we shared the £70 without me actually putting any money in. I don't count that though!

This is the reason people would rather put their money in a 500.
