    I was just wondering how much y'all get from the VIU streaks? i.e. the Super, Mega, and VIU streak.

    I had £10 in the bank, took Mega streak and it gave another £23, is this usual or more or less than usual?

    Also should I have taken it as I went straight to the red board, got given a streak on the stack and used a add again, did't risk a spin on the board and took the Mega Streak (I was looking for a quick profit and wanted to get back home and watch the Englad match).

    Cheers

    If you wanted to take a quick profit and get out then by all means take Mega Streak.

    I personally never use add again on streak add unless its for the top streak OR i have very little in and it doesnt look to be playing as well as it could be and a quick mega streak is available by getting straight on red board like you said.

    Its pointless using the add again when you get straight up if your playing for pot, as you still need another streak for the top one anyway so you might aswell save the add again.

    Super Streak = 6-9
    Mega Streak = 14-19
    Top Streak = 25-50

    Those are the usual amounts although there are some exceptions. A 'free' meag streak sometimes gives £20+.

    Now that is something that I do not understand, I get that the free streak only gives you the same play as before it was awarded i.e. not always JP ready, but how do you tell when the streak is free? Sounds like mine could have been as I got £23, wish I kept playing now :evil:

    You must understand that it isnt actually 'free', it just seems free (different pots theory).

    If it spins onto streak add by itself without using taxi etc twice. You can use select or mutli add / add again to boost it to top streak providing it has landed on streak add twice.

    OR

    If you are low down on both cash and feature stack and get offered Top Streak from 1/ 2 early lands on multi add.


    The situation you outlined in the start of this thread would NOT have seemed 'free' / come from a seperate streak pot, as it does not satisfy any of the above criteria, therefore 7/10 you were right to leave it, unless it was playing very well.
