    Roulette Machines

    Anyone else play on these?

    Total mugs game, I reckon there should be some sort of limiter or something put on the fuckers. Makes me sick to acknowledge the fact that I could have EASILY bought a brand new car with the money I've put in them in the past few years.

    I watched a bloke lose just under £2000 in about 25 minutes on one on Thursday, although I don't bet even a fraction of that I've left the bookies so often with not a penny lol

    Anyone got the number for gamblers anonymus haha

    I went from betting everyday to being completely off them for about 9 month but started playing on them again a while ago. Easily lost 5 or 6 grand in last 3 year - just daft £50/£100s that sharp add up - totally addicted again at the minute lol

    I used to go on one all the time when i was on my lunch. There used to be a little chineese guy in there all the time with pounds spread all over the board, he used to win some serious money on them everytime i saw him on it.

    Think the most i walked away with is about £10 :lol:

    Haha defo, it's common sense really, the people I see hammering these machines are scruffy old blokes putting hundreds in whilst wearing a naf naf coat & nicks trainers they've had since 1992 but insist on losing every last penny as how ever much they do win isn't enough (my very problem lol) where they could of just walked away & bought some new gear. I think as of Monday a new complete boycott is in effect, slowly but surely ruining myself with them.

    I walked into Jespers Casino, put £10 on 2nd 12 on roulette, won, cashed up & walked out.
    Never gambled since.

    we used to go to Aspers quite often and bet quids here and there. just really went for the free cheese toasties lol havnt been back since i went in one night and was nearly 400 quid up in about 20 mins. took my money and was over the moon! but then boredom set in waiting for everyone else and i ended up putting it back in. Even though technically i didnt lose anything i was still gutted

    Keeping to the plan
    Roulette machines are the crack cocaine of gambling, theyre not fixed but when you lose you think they are and when you win you think theres a system and a method behind why youve won. Ive seen people lose thousands on them. If youre gonna play roulette you might aswell do it in a casino at least you get free drinks and get some fun out of it.

    They're the only thing I'll play on at the casino, but I'll not put in more than £20 (not even usually that much). I'm a crap gambler anyway cos if I make a profit, no matter how puny, I cash out there and then. Usually I win approx £2. :lol:

    I put daft quids in here & there but nothing major. My brother put 50p in once & ended up walking out with £30 quid (and he doesnt even know how he did it)

    I've seen people feed notes in & then randomly touch the screen for about 5 minutes, spin, win fuck all & then walk out. Nuts
