Or its been played by a load of newbies who lost loads.
but what time frame is the 'minimum' payout over... as otherwise in theory it'll be going over the minimum payout often during play... and thus paying out often, rather than in one big £82 lump (unless obviously people have been purposely making it force jackpot).

Tell me about it. I have tried to chase lots of money by losing on purpose before and it very rarely works

If you get on the main board and onto the deal or no deal game thing, you can see what it says. (The mirror is the bit that says Mega Streak in Noels stomach on that picture)

Probably some multiple of the jackpot. If they're dropping hundreds it must be a while.

when I used to play them I would often win £150+ from £25 jackpot machines. Usually the simpsons one.

The deal or no deal with the optional 4th reel is top banana, always win on that.

thats why it was called mega streak paul its the top feature those deal or nodeal machines rarely pay out big unless you get the mega streak which on that machine has been known to top £100 many times plus it holds £250 in its hopper so it would not go empty trust me machines dont go wrong anymore well very rarely plus if it pays out and you take it it is legally its yours as you put money in whatever comes out no matter how much is yours most i ever had out of a £25 machines was £442 from a red white and blue off the red feature which could just keep holding and holding if machine went empty you just got them to refill it using the refill key on the side of the machine so it did not reset its self doing this would make the red feature start all over again hence making the machine forget its just paid out a full hopper it was a bit of a scam back in the day but it was so hard to get the machine empty but good if you could

Ah!!! Red white and blue's!!! now were talking, back in the day these earnt me a fourtune, absolutly awesome machines if you know what ure doing (knocking anything bar the red streak)
The sitdown/standup 3 in a row monopoly/golden game/viva las vegas etc are all good for 250 + on an 8 step away beep.
not that i am in anyway admitting i had a fruit machine addiction, just used to play open till close all day everyday when i was younger, paid for the majority of the 10k i spent on my corsa

Just says the amount that you're going to win behind it. You know when you deal at the end and it normally says "1p" If you know you've got 1p there, and you're left with 1p and Mega Streak, and offered £20, you take the £20 instead of pressing no deal and getting the penny.
We've had all these deal or no deal gamblers in our pub. currently got "The big reds" It's a bit shit though.
Not liking this "Transfer £2" button that's popping up on machines now either. Means you spend your winnings more easily

Don't put notes in... as they don't go into the hopper the machine is less likely to pay out from them.
good tip with the looking at what it'll offer you tho. It only display it right at the end? on final deal or what? does it work on all of them?

Thats totally untrue, it does not make the slightest bit of difference whether you put coins or notes in.
its not really a cheat/tip etc about the 1p/mega streak, its just common sense that if you no deal its gonna rip you off.
