Section 16 random machines.

[deejaybee]

have 2 what i assume to be examples of the new style random machines turned up near me.

No nudges, no holds, just press start button or put them on autoplay....

Both by Vivid - Spectrum & Golden Roll - £500 JP, 50p a spin.

I go to the location to play something else, but just put a single pound coin in both of them if they are not being played...... had a couple of little "tickles" - £15 - £20 wins, at least you can be fairly confident that they are not being done by some obscure method or mtr. I dont know whether they are at all progressive as i'm never in the place long enough to watch someone giving it a good go.... and you need a healthy float at 50p a go !!

Anyone else seen/played these things ?

[Fruity_Expert]

they i've seen a few. completely random but pay out an average of 92% + aint it?

I palyed a few of the £75 AWP type ones - 3 win lines each line pays £25 max. bet they will start phasing out normal AWPs if the law gets passed to put em in pubs.

50p is the max stake each line, so max bet = £1.50

would you play a machine for 150p a spin!!

would you play a machine for 150p a spin!!

yep

have won 500 a few times on these badboys - even potting one again the next day!

you do know its completey random dont you

you must be the luckiest guy alive

[Slotterman]

The only reason to play these is addiction.
Almost any other form of gambling,from bingo to premium bonds is a better bet,so admit guys - if you find yourself playing these new random slots,it's because you can't help yourselves...you're addicts!

I certainly wont be playing any random machines now or in the future.

The whole point of any professional fruit players exploits is that he has some idea of when the machine is going to pay out, hence he can make money.

....Not anymore more!

Could this be the end????

[MarkMashManos]

Oh yes, most definately its is the end of Fruits.

Anyone who says it is'nt is in denial. Look at LBO's 95% of them hav'nt even kept x1 Fruit mc since FOBT's came out. Pubs will get them as soon as they are allowed too, an friend in the industry told me Section 16's can up uo £720.00 per hour! Come off it, which do you think a guvnor would rather have a £25.00 non repeater or a machine which offers a customer a JP of £500.00??

Some arcades have already got them nr me!

Come on, get real!

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but just reading through and I doubt pubs will get rid of fruities and bring in these random £500 jp machines- imagine the trouble it would cause in a busy pub if someone won the £500 after someone had lost a fortune in it? Jeez, winning £76 on a top feature raises eyebrows in many pubs, £500 jp machines just don't fit in with boozing I'm afraid.

Which machine would that be then ? A curious amount.
