    I hate people watching me too. I don't really believe in luck or anything but I always seem to have some idiot watching me when the machine is taking the piss. The most annoying thing is when they don't even stand in a corner and lean on a machine to pretend they're not watching you. I've had people I don't know practically standing on my feet to watch me play. I never know what to say to them, and being quite small I usually manage a pathetic "can you not watch me, please?". I shouldn't have to say please to them! One little squirt was watching me on every machine I played and was following me around the arcade. I finally told him to leave me alone and got "No, I watch everyone". I was too shocked for words and stood and gawped at him for about 5 seconds then managed "fuck off" and he actually went. Grrr.

    It annoys me too being watched, especially if your doing a trick of some kind or even an empty, you don't want them catching on so you have to say something, i had someone watch me doing superhold on a cop the lot a few years back, when he saw the first one he shouted his mates over to see the second, he had to be told.


    its worse in the bookie on the roulette, try getting rid of anything up to 10 foreigners (no exaggeration)

    Theres some really aggressive fat bird in a local who keeps playing crazy chair and after sticking a fiver in she'll turn the machine off, fuck off for five mins and come back. She repeats this until she gets jp. Is there something I'm missing?
    I turned it back on once and she got the manager (her mate) to have a go at me so I cant do anything about it.
    By the way if your wondering what relevance this has to the thread I dont stand near her but have a drink with a mate nearby as I hate it when people watch me but surely what she's doing is wrong, its not her reserving the machine just being a pain in the c**t.

    hahahah what a fat bitch... kind of had a similar problem

    but like you said she is the bar owners mate, why dont you get 'intouch' with your sences and use your 'manly intuition' and become freinds with the owner yourself and give him a problem to think about....


    Normaly what i do when i play machines, is get in when no one is around. earlier in morning/weekdays at certin times/late night..sometimes i do show my face playing it when a crowd is about and keep my winnings in my pocket and throw in a few quid make it look like im not doing so well and never exchange my winnings back into notes once im done (thats the obivous give away)... once or twice i've had a person stand near me playing, i just feel like jack the lad when there is because im sure they dont have a clue what im doing and im winning... they just look dazed..

    I just take my time, play really slowly, and keep looking round at them whenever I get on the board. They get the hint soon enough
