Watching someone punt one on £363 and lose £1800 without getting Cashpot was enough to keep me off them. It was a truly soul-crushing experience, even from the perspective of a spectator. The cashpot eventually went 2 days later after a further £1000 of gameplay. If you can call it gameplay.
If I was prepared to gamble £1800 it would have to be roulette, in a casino, where you have a chance of winning some real money. Not in an arcade chasing what would be, in a best case scenario, a £500 raise.

You put a lemon to shame, you bitter cunt.
The thing is you say you can lose x amount on them but if it does max out I will run another hundred through then just bin it. I don't go searching for them. If I'm doing well yes I will probably have a punt on them as you call it, if high enough and so far am up overall on them. I probably play alot of things other players don't play but it's like your last post says doingthem you don't care so it don't really matter.
Not lost a load personally just like 3-400 max but heard off a few bag plus losses on em
Lucky 8 is a £24 expected cost and the time it takes you to play it is 2-3 hours on average, so a £120 one is £100 profit on average from 2-3 hours. Not exactly bad! Saying that, haven't played one for over a year personally, can't be bothered to go checking them!

"Most games are a risk of some degree. What the question is, is whether a gamble is a positive expectation. Ie. In the long run is it profitable. Imo jpking are not although it's just an opinion. I personally think based on experience and a few other people's experience they usually max out although I'm prepared to accept that could be coincidence."
-thanks ob for explaining how to win from gambling.

"Surely just a game for addicts? "
cheers gary, i'm stone broke and really struggle financially. i was wondering why i consistently lose on fruit machines and why my bankroll never increases. i will seek help, at least i know now, that's the first step right?
