Ay Up.

Just a quick message. Been agaes since my last post.

WHEN were these machines switched on?

Im just wondering WHAT everyone thinks of these new Bookies slots, I have been so busy over the last few weeks I havent even gotten into a bookies to so much as look at one let alone play one.
How do they play? Much like section 16 peices of crap?

I saw a sighn hung in a ladbrooks the other day claiming they had the highest % on the highstreet at 94% - although Im sure they dont pay like they do!

WHY are are they here again? Change of law? Would make sence..... I mean change the law.... and force people to play more expensive machines with more tempting prices..

WHO has played them... stories experiences please! Anyone one + on them?

AYE oww

I think that the likelihood of a bookie driving around in a roller is far greater than the punter.

I did however a couple of years ago try some of these online slots paying out at "allegedly" 97% by law. Not sure if that's true but £50 later I realised the error of my ways and didn't bother to put anything else into my account.

Enough said.

the corals ditions to their global-draw machines are spot on, lots of effort have gone into the new games, like a £500 joker poker, a £500 magic games (called sizzling 7`s i think) and even a Barcrest game thown in. AFAIK the news games are category b3, and are not random, but % based around 92%

then you have ladbrokes... utter piles of poo, compiled with little or no effort, almost as if they want to bore the punter to death.

nuff said, well done corals.

Please specify your ideal JP/stake/percentage and whether you prefer random or compensated.

Thanks Nails, I think I will pop into my local coral, perhaps tommorow. I will check out the £500 joker poker. What is the stake on these? multiple?

And.

In responce to TheMission I dont dislike random(ish) machines, but overall % based machines do tend to favour us players who spend a bit of time getting to know a machine. A 96% would be nice! But so would a 98% or a 101%. The higher the better, goes without saying.
My comments were more along the pessimistic lines other than anything else.

load of shit 3 of a kind 15p not bad eh?

[kingkallum82]

I got a spin at about 200 or so on party slotto in betfred.

Im not sure if they are random even though it does say so. It does when you select Reel King, it says when its loading THIS IS A RANDOM MACHINE

I played the joker poker today and got 4 kings which is £10 but then you get the chance to climb up to £50 if you find the Joker in the 5 cards it offers which i did and it took me to £50 then found the joker again took it to £250 but then i didnt find it the third time would have been £500 but the good thing is you can do it without losing the amount you already have which i think is good.Anyway i went on with £20 walked off with £310 so not bad.

Finally got in the bookies this weekend (funny, used to have the opposite problem).

Went into Coral on Nails advice. Started with a bit of Joker Poker - found it a bit klunky (graphic wise) when compared with Joker Poker plus etc. Did about 20 in it for a bank of £25.

Go bored and decided to see what else was on offer.

Settled on (shit whats it called? little help) Crown gems/jewles? Played it on 20p stake, had some time to kill wanted lengthy play - managed to stack up a bank of £75 within about 20 mins - thanks to an almost full screen of red gems and several sets of 3 crowns.

Nothing drastic but my first experience of bookies new slots was a posotive one.

Anyone else got wins/losses to report on these?

I also see that william hill is introducing a game based on texas holdem (aswell as blackjack) to their machines! could be fun.
