    Is it worth forcing £5 JP machines if so how much on average would it cost?

    Cheers.

    It varies wildly.

    Some will cost not much more than a fiver, some might cost £25.

    £5 JP are a waste of time IMO. Boards are about as frequent as a £25 JP on some of them with little return.

    Bowling Alleys and the like may a killing from £5 JP's.

    Forced a few, good for learning features and general playablity of machines (if not a contradiction nowadays).

    Forced a big blaster costing £22, gave me £28 back, fucked up really.

    As said, alot can help u learn like Magic 7's helped us work them out alot, we also have played VIU but cant determine the chip because every board (which costs 4 quid) give pot near enough or 4 at least. It all depends on what 5 pound JP m/c's ur playing, I have played alot, Golden Dragon - 1 quid in 9 out, king kebab - 9 out from 7 in, LOTR2 got red board after first fiver, kept costing a fiver for a board - always red, took 7 pots, until it gave 3 within 2 quid, then next board gave 3.60 cash - not red. Subutteo usually sreaked for 25-35. Beaver uncovered is another - 5 in JP board, 5 more in for board another jp.

    What £5jp's are you playing?

    I'm sure most people on here will be able to advise.

    BTW: What does everyone think about £5 jp machines - 10p play 5 JP, 25/30p Play 25 JP, but what pays better? I cant make a conculsion, ass 5 jp's can be good, but 25's can be bad.

    10p/5 riviera run is usually a pretty safe bet. riviera run on it can run for 40+ which is nice. i also play a 10p/5 jiggin in the riggin which will happily streak for 30, and the most i had was 70!

    you dont get any progression on £5 JP its usually a case of between £3-£10 in for a JP with about 3 boards in this time. true its good for features but its hard to judge how a £25 will act based on playing a £5 one.
    Why has it come to this?

    Cheers for the replys guys, it's appreciated. - I went out yesterday and found an IJ on 10p/5JP and a Rat Pack 10p/5jp I was quite chuffed as I like playing these machines, anyway I didnt force as off first £1 in each got about £3, I always find on Vivid's its best to build your bank up and I ended up quite up which was suprising off 10p machines, I might play them more often now..

    on IJ3 which feature is best to take when forcing? Is it best to hold out for the 5 ? gambles and go for the streak?

    Is it reel stop skill? I need some practice on that for sure..

    Is this relevant for the £5 JP IJ3?

    no its hard to describe, like a skill continue over cash values on the cabinet, piss to hit. Will be same for £5JP, dunno how often it'll give it tho, may just force IM's on u. Be a gd 1 to practice on tho.
