I just recieved a guide for fruit machines. Basically it tells you how to empty any machine
basically it says that you must make sure you take no mney out of the machine and eventually empty the machine?
Does this work because i dont want 2 waste my money!
Cheers
...without considering what you are actually doing. In some cases this is what one does to force a streak but how much do they mean? You would need to make sure that the machine is full and at the right point in its profile for this to work. Additionally, some machines are coded to go dead for £20+ after dropping their streak to ensure that they recover some of their float, so when do you leave the machine, whether for max profit and/or (more importantly) min loss?
Depending on the machine you get different forcing behaviour. Either U get silly wins forced on you and it will get utterly tedious because the machine will roll in Cherries all the time. This applies to Barcrest BC & clones, where it starts getting awefully boring playing the machine as you have to sack the feature every other go to get enough money into it.
Other machines will eat the money unless you activate the streak by taking a certain amount when it is ready (Barcrest Revolution Clones can do this although it does start giving silly steps/Reds after a while). Or the machine will eat most of the money and offer some occasional OK'ish (£6-10) wins Mazooma/BFG/QPS) but never balance back until the streak. Or the machine will just offer big wins inc. JP from nudges and/or just roll the JP on (some Impulses do this), which U have to recycle.
And some machines will force you on the board and force wins on you - Fruits U Sir does this by Red using the "Safe Bank".
Most machines these days will try and balance themselves somehow and make it so that they attempt to linearly achieve their percentage and save for the streak pot. If you just try and force loads in, then you __could__ potentially be lucky and end up in the position where the machine dumps a couple of balancing JPs on you and then the streak, but the £125 float can't afford the payout. Or you end up on a machine with a staggered JP run and you can't work out when you should leave it for a profit, or a small loss and call it a day. Or you just simply end up buggered.
So a different approach is needed on different machines. Ensure you understand the logic of the machine that you are playing and make sure it is full as well as having a goal that you are trying to achieve that will potentially maximise your outcome on the machine, e.g. force first IM or JP and hope for streak, force top feature, recycle wins for a certain feature, recycle wins and hope for a random IM/JP [not recommended] etc.
I find the best results are achieved where the machine's game works such that after sussing whether the float is full and if it is playing OK, then you can easily force first JP or IM, check/take for streak and then bugger off, and all done under 20 mins whether profit or loss. On some machines like BC this is almost impossible even if it is ready for its £75 dump. Note though that I can press those buttons jolly quickly these days. Naturally, I have to adjust my spead to cope with flash hold delay on some annoying machines, Barcest Rev Clones are one of the worse BTW.
