http://www.gather.com/viewarticle.jsp?ar... Congrats! Okay they aren't scams but on the other hand it definitely isn't luck or skill. The way these games work is that the pay out is controlled by the operator. For instance, an xbox 360 is worth about $400 so the operator usually wants to get at least four times that amount to cover the cost of the prize along with the cost of buying the Stacker machine. So basically the machine has to take in $1600 before the odds go down.

A friend of mine services these machines and the odds can be set as low as 1 in 5. We turned it down to this setting and sure enough after the 5th time I was able to win with no problems. I tried it multiple times and always on the 5th time it was much easier. Based on this, whenever you see someone win the big prize, that's your cue to walk away. The next time the game will pay out will be when the machine takes in about 4 times (maybe even higher depending on how much the operator sets it) the value of the prize. Yes it is very deceiving since after people see someone win the big prize they are like "HEY YOU CAN WIN!!!" and start pumping money in the machine like crazy. wow great prize - congratulations! Nice one, some prize. I won a ring at a slot machine last night and gave it to my girlfiend, it wasn't a good ring but she's good to me and deserved it :) Not that good, I thought those things were scams. yay for you!
My husband won me a mini notebook at the 2p machines at southend! i got a tenner out of the penny falls once Not at the sea side but about 3 months ago I entered an M&M's comp and won a playstation 3 ?~*?*~? Congrats!!!!
wow never known anyone win in the arcades... good for you hun! That's so good. Nope, never won anything that good, not ever. Hope you both really enjoy it! I won a DVD player at the bingo last year....but to win that at the seaside is brill.
