This machine has only just reached my local wetherspoons and i agree it seems to play well, but everytime ive played ive not had enough money to force it. Just taking wat I can! Anyone just a few questions. How does the machine indicate IM, is it by a flashing logo etc and wat is this 'infamous' red series, Im only a beginner so help would be appreciated

Cheers

The logo in the top left-hand corner will go all 'swirly' during board-play. Barcrest logo may also flash briefly as you are entering the board, but have never checekd... ;)

Everyone but me seems to get TAW in there 'spoons. I have a powerball, king-ker ching, bullys prize board, juggling jackpots, and a sub-zero. Not much to make my eyes light up.

Voodoo Cash Blast plus 1 ITBox

The other has

Barcrest YDD and Red DNA and 2 ITBoxes

I know mate, my other spoons is a red gaming haven! Jackpot Gems, Lifes A Beach, Stack Attack and Rocket Money. (With a Chav It thrown in) So that isn't too bad, unless you catch it wrong and spunk 80ish quid :(

TAW logo swirls (sort of wobbles) also if your first shot is blue series, then second shot is green etc to red series. i think this IM too! Not to sure tho as i have this happen twice and been red series both times. anyone correct me? or had the same happen to them?

Yep, the blue / green / yellow / red series boards do occur - although as said elsewhere, don't get caught in the trap where it offers you the consecutive boards 'too quick'. Should be a good £3-£4 between boards to get the series streak.
Try another board after too, as this often goes 'swirly' ;)

cheers guys, so is it better to wait for red series than take the jackpot?

It can block quite a lot between offering a JP and giving Red Series, the worst I've experienced is £30 but on the otherhand it may go on the same board.

In my experiences on TAW, i have always taken red series as this tends to do a little more than £25, £30-32 ive had. If the machine is 'buzzing' then JPs can repeat but then again red series can give quite a bit. im not totally sure, but ive always had a IM board after having JP never after a red series board! So im not 100% sure the best way to get the most money out of it - i just go for red series!

Had good experiences on it though! so alls happy!! :D :) :D :)

Depends I normally go for 9reel blast for jacker, then next board play for either super hold or reel blast jacker again. It can then maybe do the series streak followed by an IM. It just depends on how happy the machine is.
