So as the title says, what is your best fruit machine experience?
I have 2, one is winning £5 off 2p nudger from just 20p, was only 11 and i was chuffed to bits
2nd one happened about 3 hours ago, Just had a game of bowling and had only 50p left in my pocket, was tempted to play DOND, but then i saw bully & knowing how evil that machine is i stuck it in the bullseye machine, 40p gone & eff all, span & got a 4 (Bonus) gave me trail skill & i got on for 40p, gambled to 50p & exchanged, 2 spins in i unlocked the top board, another 2 spins i got 2 super shots ( landed on them with a 1) took 2 shots and then went higher, got a 12, lower & a 3 but that dont matter, turned oiut i'd got 5 bully's a streak
Ended up streaking for £12.50 i was chuffed, came home with more than i went out with
So has anyone else had experiences like this?

Me & my cousin had 6p left on holiday one year so we put it in a Win-A-Gain & got the jackpot of £1.50 (WOOOOO!!!)
Well it was a lot in them days (the 80s!!) we even managed to get 2 bags of chips with the winnings!

I tell you what I do enjoy a lot, and people might give me a beating because of it lol, but I do like playing PT
Esp when you get a win, I find it most exciting, will it go up? will it not? Then it goes PLAYER 3!!!! And you're like Yesssssss! What fun that is!
I also enjoyed getting a first jackpot, which I remember, on Honey Money...Gave an IM board so gambled to the ol' JP:)
And of course, the tuppenny nudgers are always a good laugh:) I got a JP from rolling in the melons once , first 2 came in I thought...Well ought to have a gamble, then in comes the third! Was a good day indeed;)

... too many to list really, can't think of which would be 'best'.
I guess most of them would come from my earlier playing days, just after my GCSEs. Pretty much a Summer Holiday filled with gambling.
I think when I was younger, the wins meant more, and I staked less to achieve them. It was before I'd say I became a full-blown helpless addict. It was before I started playing in arcades / betting offices, so it was purely pub gambling.
As such, it was structured around going out with a few mates, some darts / pool, and grabbing a few beers (I was always tall for my age, and had a great reputation, so most pubs served me and were probably aware of my age).
Anyway, I digress... best one was probably Tulip Parade, sure it was the same year as my GCSEs (2002?), and I was on study leave. Started off with £10, spent the first fiver on a Guinness and 10 Richmond, and went on Viva Rock Vegas. First board is a flash, flat £25. Got another board a couple of presses later for another £25, and another board after (no flash) which I wussed out on and took £10, so that's £60 out.
Went on the Full Moon Fever next to it, unusual Impulse machine. Don't think it was a flash but punted out a nudge gamble of some sort to get £25, although I can't remember if it repeated or not. Pretty sure it didn't.
Either way, the day had just started, and I was plenty up.
Walked towards the river to a pub I played darts for at the time, Temple of Treasure. £5 in, Nudge Code bonus which gambled up for £25 and repeated twice for £75.
Of course my mates were gobsmacked, none of them played machines, and couldn't work out how the hell I had over £150 in coins at this point.
Obviously it was just bloody lucky, but as they didn't have clue, I milked it a bit.
You can probably guess who bought the beers
Did some more gambling after that, made some more profit. Don't remember how much, I only remember getting wasted on the riverbank.
That was a good, old time session - surrounded with best mates, lovely weather, plenty of drinks, and a good time.
Unlike the way my gambling turned out - anti-social, dingy arcades and desperation.

Remember being in an arcade in Wales and having 1 last quid left..walking about thinking what will i put it in..
Seen a Cloud999 and must have caught it on its mad streak..first spin 1 nudge..pair of red bars holds..etc etc.
Like Ben i was kinda 'playing to the crowds' a little..as there was 2 lassies following me and my bro around the arcade 'think they fancied us'..watch this 3 red 9's will drop in..watch this 3 yellow bars will drop in.
They thought it was amazing how did i know this ?? well duhhh holds after nudges..well i got about £17 out of it that time most of it tokens though (which was a hell of a lot of cash in them days)
Good times.

On a Christmas works do piss up I was the first out and whilst waiting for my mates, decided to have a quick flutter on the old Section 16S, Put £20 in Elvis and £20 in Rainbow Riches and pressed Auto while I went for a piss. Came back to find £500 had dropped in via 5 cars on Elvis and a couple more spins on RR brought in a £400 Gold Pot. Well chuffed lol. Lets just say it was a great day all round with a 15 hour drinking session and still going home with over £800 more than I come out with.

Think best one I have done was in Ladbrokes, next to the Vic Center in Nottingham (Clock Tower).
£40 in a FOBT which kept loosing it's back office connection to the main machine in the back.... Rainbow Ritches (Pots Of Gold).
3 coin pots, thought it was going to drop bronze for about £110, Gold droped for £500.
Never seen me shift so f*****g fast out of the place, especaly noting it's in a crap part of Notts.
Fortunaly NatWest was just a few doors down, so banked it pretty dam quick

In the early 90's (golden era for me) remember having literally nothing left except copper money - Put it in Tuppenny Nudger and JP - Leading on to what must be described as an incredible day. Had runs on nearly every machine. Pockets to bursting points - 4 pockets jam packed with £1's and my coat which had deeper pockets absolutely filled with tokens, really, 100's of the beauty's at least £200+ worth and that's after exchanging tokens for 400 Regal King size
Great days back then, when machines were great!!!

One of my most memorabel experiences was playing club machines. Me and a mate were at a local social club with a club Dracula and a Golden Dragon, both 250jp. The Dracula was full, 30 in got JP + 60 afterplay. Then put the 60 in the dragon got JP + about 30 afterplay. We then headed for the local snooker centre and put 30 in the casino crazy for another 250 JP. Could not beleive it and will never forget it! Also once on a ferry I put 3 quid in a 250 golden dragon, two jp symbols came in on reels 3 and 4, held, held then held again.. now this normally always means the 3 reel win will come in which would've been 30 quid.. I was happy with that but it actually landed all 4 JP symbols which I've never seen happen before off 3 holds! Happy times lol

Its hard for me to pick one since I empty EVERY machine and never lose.... (sorry, got a touch of that swine flu, that Gary Chandler.. he was a swine wasn't he lol)
Most memorable has gotta be Viz, just for the sound effects and features, but best wins I remember is Rocket Money, NEVER walked away from that down and Reel Money (the one I DX'd not the old one) I walked into Superbowl with £1.80, after 80p in Reel Money I had £16 in tokens... brought myself some tea from the cafe (they used to take tokens as payment) then played the rest. Walked away with over £40

Lots of memories, but all in the 80's and 90's, and machine most people have forgotten about
1) Butlins North Wales 1982. If you knew the place in the 80's then you know there was 3 arcades on the complex. Didn't win much off the two arcades by the donkey derby/French Bar complex, so went to the single one by Green Camp.
The aracde was full of MPU3 kit, Lucky2's Plus Nudges, lite a nudges. And the rampage started by winning Jp after JP on every single machine, as quick as I was ramming tokens into machines, I was winning them back. Got a small entourage, who was wondering, who this f***in midas was. Lost track of time, and next thing I know it was closing time 10:30. Waddled home with 10's and tokens, and got the berating of my life from my parents for being out so late.
2a) Las Vegas Liverpool Lime street. Late 80's with 2-3 quid Jp's, frog hop, bouncers, fruit snappas, big shots, MPU2 and MPS. Me and my gran just cleaned up on every machine 20p tokens weighed less, but it got dull afte a while winning that much so easily. I think I went home with about 15 quid pure profit
2b) Same place. Few years later, and ACE system 1 machine Bank-Note, had a problem with the coin mech. It would credit your pound, and then return the coin. Emptied the machine in an hour
3) Getting the 20 quid (double tenner) off Action Pack
4) Quiksilvers Thomas street Liverpool. Mid 90's they had 15 quid machines, and a JPM Red Alert. Some muppet cashier had floated up the machine incorrectly, so when I collect my 6 quid, it didn't come out..I fished around with the payout tray, and out came 80 quid or so. Cashier was wondering how I won 80 quid in 2 minutes flat
5)Getting my first streak on 777 Heaven/Play It again.
and finally
6) Quiksilvers Erdington high street. 2002, there was an MPU4 NNWW. every morning it would reset to red 7 blue 7 red7. 5 quid in would always give a tenner or JP (15). Then (as there was few people in at that time), quickly turn the machine off and on, and the machine would reset back again, as the battery was flat on the RAM. Took them about a fortnight to work out what was going on.
Now..I would avoid every arcade there was, and play 5 quid JP's or less, as most machines are chuzzied up to suck huge and pay little, on every stake
Pimp.

Best experience probably when i was 12ish, new years eve at the local club and everyone absolutely #@#@#@#ed. Got to 12 o clock and everyone went to one side of the club to do that gay thing, i whack a quid in monty python flying club £150-10p and 3 jackpots drop in on reels 1-2-4, now i wouldn't usually hold them as i think it's wasting a go but i did and it must of done a spin about 5 seconds long -
.....AND NOW THE MOMENT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!
walked away with no one knowing and 150 quid in my pockets (:
Had better days but that was my first big win so i remember it well.
