    Hello everyone,

    I was just wondering how many of you started your gambling in the arcades?

    I’ve always lived in seaside towns and i will always remember my first gamble, turning 50p into £76 on coronation street. I would have been about 11 at the time and never felt richer. The machine would not stop paying jackpots, never seen such a run on it ever again.

    Do any of you have some great stories about how you got the gambling bug?

    I do miss there being an element of skill to gambling. Online can be amazing for the huge wins but I’ll always prefer the physical machines.

    Yes snakes and adders. Used to play it when I was 10-11 at the arcades at a local caravan park. Hours and hours of fun.

    Absolute classic that was.

    Casino Royale was a favourite of mine. So many fun ways to lose money before it all became deal or no deal or £1 then £2 a play.
