I played 'poker face with Ant & Dec machine tonight, and after a bit of daft play I eventually got Red Mega Streak.........Expecting at least 35Quid, I was shocked when it stopped at 19!

Is this a real possibility or have I been screwed by a bent machine?

Thanks for and info.

BTW it was in the Farmers Arms pub, Cheadle Heath, Stockport.......beware!!!

Red MS is not the top feature.
What you got is about normal.

yea you have to be careful, on machines like this and road to riches, warped, etc, etc, usually the machine name is the proper £35+ megastreak. as for the new £70 machines, i have no idea how much the megastreak goes for, as i assume it will never give £70.

I take it you aren't a regular in the pub, if you are it's a bit stupid to give a pub name and use your real name and year of birth in your avatar, especially when you imply they operate bent machines and warn people to 'beware'.

Just thought I'd mention it.

I know it will come as a shock to some people on here, but all machines are fixed. There is a bit you will lose and that bit pays for:
a) the operator makes money and
B) the government can take their slice

It ain't rocket science - you will lose.:oh:

i find it funny when people say machines are fixed when about 95% of machines run to the correct % shown.

the remaining 5% can be found possibly showing the wrong % on the glass.

you can't "fix" a machine unless you have hacked the program managed to gain access to the mahine and installed it without the owner or suppliers knowledge.

generally speaking a mega streak can give you between £8 and the jackpot.a red megastreak can give you between £12 and the jackpot.

Agreed, but there has been instances where certain roms for certain machines which are 100% legal and have been available to download on BBS ect have been a bit " ropey" to say the least and have required further critical updates.The old Pacman certainly springs to mind.

i can beat that..... got a flash on a £35 italian job, played the phone feature and it had 10p in it...... what a dirty fecker.

if it had not repeated on 10p 3 times, i`d be really mad...

Hmmm.

Its funny you should say that .

Same machine but on £35 jp, got the once in every 20,000 spins " go all the way ".Took the super dond feature thinking the Mega would be in my box ( at least it is with every Deal or no deal gatw/flash boards ).It offered £35.00 every offer but took away bothe the £35 box AND the Mega Streak box.So as last two box's left were blues, and the offer still at £35.00 , i took it.

One other thing i noticed is that there was a blue in my box ( it always reveals box if you deal or play to the end ).

Glad i did that after hearing that Nails.Would HATE that to happen to me, especially on £70.

Baz, if your reading this , it was one of your machines in my local.Prob nothing you can do about it but it does reek of some sort of major bug that is 100% in the machines favour, so to a extent you could , dare i say, say its rigged/fixed.

This sort of problem could so easily be rectified on BBS, but Mazzoma only do that if there is a PLAYER advantage, not a MACHINE advantage, of which there are plenty already !.

Why do you collect the dond game on a go all the way??? Thats just like collecting a feature and expecting it to somehow give you JP just because it's a flasher!!!
It says "Go all the way" which means, go all the way!!! don't collect anything and it'll give you Megastreak from the coloured matrix.

I am aware of that, but i didnt lose i still got the jp, so keep your triple ???'s and !!! for another day.

Every offer on a flash/gatw is jp anyway ,so whats the fuss ?


Hall of Fame, to get the mega streak ( ws ) gambling it out only gives the Jp, so any time it flashed, unless it give the ws before gambling up then i'd take the dond thingy.

Well, thanx for some 'friendly' answers...:err:

I have since discovered that the machine was set on 30p play max......even though it was accepting 50p play.

Why would I be bothered about 'possibly' having my name and year of anything on my avatar.....that waffle dont interest me.

But I am going in the FARMERS ARMS IN CHEADLE HEATH, STOCKPORT later.

toodle ooh.
