Awful machine, just spunked £180 in this diabolical thing. Based on an "Irish" theme (like rainbow riches), its more or less a clone of Lucky Devil. Throws Number Runners and Red Boards when dead.

Nasty, looks like reds seem to be getting worse.

Personally i find that most reds can give number runner when its not too happy. The clue i find is that you cant get anywhere near a big win like tenner plus.

It offered a tenner early too. You just cannot judge where you are with this machine. One to stay clear of, unless no notechanger asnd only floated once a week. I was in a Wetherspoons at 6pm on a Friday. Only £14 light, showing reds and gambling high, so the pro in me (which had made £120 on the day before this debacle) said "Force". But when it costs £100 for £35, then showing next board, you have to carry on. Eventually left £160 down. Never again. Just a warning to you all what this machine can do. Reminded me of the road to riches "Hook line and Sinker pulling in method". The gambler is weak!

Any good signs before it eventually went?

None. I do hope this fails test, but I expect it will pass if judging by "Cashbox returns"

If anything, you will get £15 off nudges to gamble up, but it can do this early in the piece, higher than a 2 anyone?

Hmm, so £100 for £35 and it was red after properly (ie. not on 12 nudges /boxes etc.) and you still lost £160!??

Ouch if that is the case, sounds like an awful machine.

Anyone else noticed reds in general playing a bit funny recently? Put 150+ for a top in 4 of 'em this week. All showing within 30. Put 220 through an invincible yesterday - redding of a tenner! Got 200 back but for fucks sake!
Complete waste of time as I didnt even go in to play it.
Are LL trying to recoup some of the millions they must have lost from the notechangers?

You prob just got unlucky with it. if it is gambling well, offering number runner and redding then it is there. I bet you were just unlucky, i have had an invinciblt do the same and it cost over 350 for 250 back and invincibles are one of the best reds out.
