Powerball (BFM)

Interesting experience on this the other day...

having taken an easy double jackpot off this from £10 the week before, I decided that this was worth a force when found it offering £10 off the first feature. After 20 in it offered a 'yellow' jackpot, but assuming a similar profile to CTL etc... i pushed all out for a red jackpot, thinking it would be just around the corner. However, it proceeded to offer yellow jackpots virtually every feature for the next £100, when it finally gave a red jackpot, which didn't repeat. Took another 4 jackpots out for a £125 streak in total though for a total loss of about £20 in the end. Not really worth it for about 2 hours work!!!

You forced a BFM for a red board?
Sounds crazy to me... been years since I even bothered with on properly but I do recall they can easily take £100 for even one JP at times. I think you are very lucky to only be £20 down.

Not a red board, a JP repeater on a clearly JP happy machine. Not about playing when under the influence though clearly!!!

quick tip for this machine.
hit cancel, far left button as soon as u land on the mystery when playing powerball (flicking the ball) and hold it down, as soon as you release it slam your hand down on collect and u will survive and get bonus number or some other goodies

you have to be quick though, I get it 99% time, takes practice.

This machine was good in the sense it relied on the random effect of the ball. Was possible to hit it good, but as soon as the powerball feature ended, dont press start as it was instant death! (Unless it was begging for it)
