You've almost answered your own question there: the fact is you don't know what happened the last time it was played at its' old location. If the last person to play it took a Jackpot out, which is possible but highly unlikely, then the machine is gonna reflect that huge percentage knockdown in the way it plays. Remember that just because it's moved house, it hasn't lost it's payout history.

Because you'll never know the answer, I'd say play it because I'm the sort who won't die wondering. But don't be lulled into a false sense of security just because it's backing - even if it is playing on a relatively even keel, you wouldn't wanna force it without plenty of funds. If you work there, you're probably in a good position to monitor how it plays for a few weeks before giving it a shot.

thanks nixxy i have noticed at the moment its is taking a lot and not paying a great deal..the boss took £140 out of the bottom this week alone and it had only been there 3 days...it definitely isnt happy at the mo so i think keep an eye on it ! i read elsewhere that globals are difficult to force is this true?
i must agree with ob its not much fun at the mo?
is a refill key gonna give me any insider knowledge on when its due as well?

you cant force this machine, the only way it pays jp is to spin it in, and this happens VERY RARELY...

just try and get a couple of mid size wins if you play it £10-20's, bigger than that is very difficult to achieve

Lancer - keep us up to date with this one, I'm interested to see how it goes over the next few weeks. I reckon Ob may be too!

Hope you get lucky

will do ....last 2 days it has become slightly more friendly allowing £10-20
wins but its still fcuk's you from the trail on bad cards (queens and 4's are not safe at all)so i think a watching brief will be maintained until i can suss it a little more....it is taking a lot of money though??
p.s the only tip i have so far is that if you lose (dont get to feature)from the bonus it tends to drop in about 3 times to give you a few runs at getting up?

jackpot finally went to the` bloody cleaner must have taken £700 prior to its jackpot it gave a £10 win then hold for the jackpot to spin in!! prior to that all that came out was a number of small wins and i had a bit of a winning spree but only to £85

toss machine at the end of the day

Thanks for the update - bet that win quadrupled the cleaners' annual wages and then some!

Don't chase it unless you're certain it hasn't dropped anything significant for a long, long while.

Does it have a Cashpot and a Reserve pot displayed, and if so, what are they on?

lancer · Post by **lancer** » Mon Sep 25, 2006 7:11 pm

no cashpot or anything and no recent wins...i had £35 and thats it ....the machine is so tight its fecking waterproof!!!

I have one of these kicking around locally, was fortunate enough to get the £250 (spinning straight in) a couple of months ago, but the machine is very, very bad, i've seen it take in £100 while full, and the highest win offered.... £10!! Very rare to get past the Pontoon Feature on this either. Leading upto the Jackpot, the 3 Globals had span in themselves once or twice, perhaps an indication that it's thinking about dropping the fourth one in? Another thing is that the Skill Cash Feature, which I had never seen go above £10, was going to £15.
Anyway, I've had enough of machines, this one in particular. i'm heading to another thread to tell the world i'm stopping!
