I guess it was just a matter of time...

ive had my triple triple diamond for 3 years now, and i have never hit the jackpot. never even come close.. that machine makes me mad.

I always play that damn machine when in Nevada and never win either. Something about the colors draws me in. Never again!

let some little kid play it, I'm sure they would hit the jackpot

thats what i am afraid of. i have put at least 200,000 coins through that machine. the second somebody else sit down, they'll hit the jackpot

Wow...I could be in for a long dry spell then. I had 2-3 hours of play time in the machine before I hit the jackpot. Prior to hitting it, my uneducated guess was that someone would hit the jackpot 2-3 times each year. Good thing I took a picture for evidence.

After 4+ years of collecting just pachislos, I finally bit the bullet and picked up a few Vegas style slot machines this weekend. They're in the garage for the time being as I need to do a little spring cleaning first. If anyone is interested, I can put you in touch with a great guy near Peoria, Illinois that sells these machines.

I sold a few of my games last weekend, so of course that meant I had to "reinvest" the proceeds. My first Vegas video slot machine...now I have a matching set.

Yes I agree the kids do do better. I had my old mills for along time and never hit the jackpot but all of my kids and their friends did. I gave it to Mopar and his wife hit has already hit the jackpot.

I experienced the same thing and always wanted a "Double Diamond" twenty five cent slot machine. I always looked at the listings on Ebay and never thought I would be in a position to acquire a Vegas style machine especially a "Double Diamond". I emailed a seller in Kansas City that had one listed and asked about shipping etc. Believe it or not I negotiated the machine plus personal delivery (almost 300 miles one way) for only $200.00. And the kicker was I found $10.00 in quarters in the machine. The machine had quit working and all I replaced was the $10.00 battery. Probably one of the best buys I will ever make on Ebay!

So do you like playing one more than the other?? I'd think the video one would be more fun!!

Yes, I will play the video one a lot more. I'm waiting on an extra game board right now that will have a bunch of poker games loaded onto it. It appears that these boards are easily exchangeable, so you can play a lot of games on just one machine.
