**liam.hoskin** · 5th August 2005, 10:35 AM

does anyone think that the best times to play fruit machines are friday saturday and sunday mornings after people have been out the night before? surely these are the best times to scoop the jp

I have found that playing late on a Friday or Saturday night can pay off.

If I am not out then I will play on a Sunday more or less when pub opens, also this can pay off, but I find late Friday/Saturday better.

I tend to only try a few quid but more often than not come away in profit.

Always found Saturday/Sunday lunch gives good returns, Monday too if not re-fill day

Yeah, these are typically the best days and times if the pub or place gets busy over the weekend.

It should b stated that although these are generally the best times as JJH mentioned, it is not set in stone. U should find out, through regular play, when the best times to do certain machines are. I sometimes find my best times are early on in the week, but that's usually because they are only recovering from the skelping they took from me on the same day the previous week.

It's likely that machines u play and win from are being done by someone else, so finding out when they are doing them and getting their first is always good, i.e my connect 4.

Not always likely, quite alot of mcs I play are never being done apart from my earlier thread about everybody always going for force.

Also, I would becareful as if you start taking someone else's profits things could turn ugly, try to find out who your local players are and come to some agreement, usually works

It's a dog eat dog world, dannyC. And its not as competetive around here as it must be in your neck of the woods. Must b annoying having to share machines, fuck that.

If I see someone doing a machine I play regularly then I think 'fair play, he knows his stuff.' All this territorial pish annoys me as machines are there to be played by anyone at any time, and someone who takes offence to it is out of order, it's not his machine after all.

If a machine is due, play it, regardless of who was on it before u or who plays it regularly.

I wasn't specifically pointing out if a machine is playing play it, of course you can.

But not emptying it in which was stated in the original post.

I was talking along the terms of 'raping' bandits which someone else usually does, along the way

Or 'getting done' was your statement, just to clarify 'getting done' in my eyes, means getting battered, and getting battered isn't a £50 streak

Being a mainly an arcade player I tend to go (if I go) at around 4pm either Saturday or Sunday.

I dont really think there is a certain day to play m/c's, okay after the weekend nights there can be profit, but if your gonna chance a machine you might as well play at any time and hope u get the timing right, as long as ur disciplined and can read machines well there shouldnt be a problem.
