slotto's

[mad dog]

in most of the arcades now you find the new £500 slotto's. What do everyone think about them. Me my self hate them they haven't got any format to them and are totoley random one of the players around my end stuck £2000 in one without a jp. But the problem is thats what gambling is going to come to in afew years. any thoughts

Stay away!!!!, you'll hear stories all over the net on how someone has put £1 or £2 in and won £500 (or more) but very rarely do people post when they've lost over 2-3k in one session.

I have personally seen 1 person loose 7k over two constant 9-10 sessions with no return (eventually he did roll the £500 and was happy ) RNG's are a dangerous alternative to Lo-Tec's so maybe a tenner here and there and wish, but don't get too involved or you'll soon see what the power of a £2 per game mech can do

'Elvis' by barcrest is even worse than the slottos

my fav is the monopoly and random spinner ones, wouldn't risk putting more than 10er in, as it can go along time with nothing out.

having said that many a time i've put 2-10 in, and got about 50-100 out, never nothing more tho.

arcade now has a "haunted house" one, where max stake is £10.00, its an absolute killer, saw some1 have 10 spins on £10 and got nowt.

That monopoly s16 seems to be more generous that any other s16's I've encountered.

As for random spinner, there are contrasting views on this - I personally hate them and have witnessed £1600 and no jackpot, other seem to make on them fairly regularly.

£10 spins are now illegal, £2 is the max s16's can be set too

I think it is the randomness of them that makes them bad. My mate was on one in the local arcade, left after sticking £20 in, next bloke to go on puts about tenner in and drops the £500! There was no indication it was coming so you can't play these machines with any certainty whatsoever.

At least with fruit machines you can tell whether one is about to drop or not!

seen me mate have the £1 stake put £3 in and got £250 although have seen him put £60 in with £10 return ,but I try £2 every time I win a few £££s and hope for that £25.00 lol.

Not much but hay I personally dont want it to give the £500 as I will lose more than that in the long run, may sound daft but

theres also a machine with a £4 pound spin with the symbals cherrys bells and bars on the reels don't know what it called i've got to admit i do put a few pounds in it and have had some good wins. max i put in is £8 though
