50P Golden Games

**S6TAV** · 17th September 2007, 06:45 PM

Has anyone played on the new Golden Games i think it is called Grand GG or something like that. If you play at 50p a go and acheive the GG feature you go up on the top reel but if you lose you go on to another set of reels at the top of you machine. I got £174 of it the other day then £76 on the one next to it. It seems weird because on the old GG it always finished on a 5 or 0.

Also has anybody been playing it on 50p a go and got the GG feature but never offered the spin on the 2nd set of reels? Happened to me the other day it went up top and spun in the £35 bars next spin i got nothing it just stopped the feature and went to regular game play not given me the 2nd set of reel spins which is why i usually play it at 50p a go??

I like these, i was playing one a few weeks back and it was an interchangable stake, i played the 50p stake as i thought it paid more. About 40 in and have a board go 123 or 124. Was well chuft. If memory serves me right the second spin gave me nothing, which i thought it was one more guaranteed win.

The law still states that the max JP on 50p is £35 for these categories of machine. Therefore it cannot by law allow you the bonus game if it has already paid £35 up top, unless it's streaking and then it'll do a credit break and either continue up top or go to the bonus game/combination of both.

Back in England a couple of weeks ago getting my most out of my local fruithalls (Living in Austria does have its downfalls!) I had the same thing happen to me. Gave me 3 bars instantly on the top feature whilst playing 50p then came down to nothing. Was a bit miffed to be honest. I think the most I got out of it was approx 100 after putting about 60 in.

Thanks kidgloves for clearing things up. At the time I thought I had been pressing the 30p by mistake!

I just thought at 50p a play it always went down on to the second tier of reels. So was expecting a credit break to happen regardless but it seems that if it is not going to break the £35 mark then the second reel set is defunked

I'd disagree slightly here, in the great scheme of things there really won't be much difference between 30p and 50p play, however if you are in the flash hold cycle after nudges then you have to remember it's a minimum of £10 per feature on 50p rather than £5 so a close sequence may get you ahead. The feature on 50p also has on occasion a tendency to do unusual amounts like £26-£30 which doesn't kill the flash hold, your final JP is still there for the taking. Whether this is just the machines way of skimming up to percentage or knocking back the streak pot, I'm not sure about yet.
The holds are poorly programmed, if you play on 50p and get a second hold on say the bars but then run out of credit, the machine reverts back to 30p during attract mode and when you put money back in, it may light up the 3rd hold on 30p which won't award the bars and switching back to 50p the hold will disappear. Keep those credits alive if playing 50p a shot.

totally agree with this was playing and it gave some nudges then no credit, put in money offered the holds only on 30p not 50p so played at 30p didn't hold it and guess what nothing???

also has this machine the most annoying sounds ever? sounds like a childs space rocket trying to take off how annoying!!!

Any help would be very much appreciated .
Thanks in advance

Here is a tip for GG. dont play them unless your certain is truely backing and not a refill.To many arcade owners are clocking on to them backing and therefor are filling them up. failing that stay away and let the granny button bashers play them

**sooty10** · 28th September 2007, 04:22 AM

so your saying that you need to be patient an watch the machine? im sorry if i sound totally off the ball but backing what dose that mean and how do i tell if it is?
many thanks
