Just went up to the bank to pay some money in and get a sneaky pint in and a damn fruit machine came out of nowhere and robbed me blind. Damn I hate those machines with their fancy flashing lights enticing me to gamble my money away :angry:

I only lost a tenner but i'm still :angry:

£10? Is that it?

I worked in a bar so we had like 4 of them. After work after cashing up, I'd stick probably £60-80 in those machines and get nothing out of them and I know how to play them. It was getting bad when i was going to the bank and coming back with more money.

Trust me, leave them well alone!

I&#39;ve had a run in or 2 with the ole fruit machines myself. Always nice when you win and pick up some free cash. The losing part is what I have harder time dealing with. :lol: :P

I assUme your on about slot machines
most won&#39;t payback more than 70-80%
now the video poker is your best bet but you have to know how to play most casinos have 98% payback or more if you find a good 9/6 machine

yeah the payout on slot machines are pretty crappy...as I said I used to work in a bar so I always knew the best times to play the machines we had (ie when some fool has just put a tenner in then left :huh: )

video poker? not sure we have that where i live...but maybe i shouldn&#39;t be gambling at all :lol:
