How to play the "Pokies "

Australian slots are also known as …Pokies…poker machines…and of course …slots.
The aim of the game on the pokies is to come up with a winning combination. There are various types of slots in an Australian casino (or Club) and the traditional spinning reels type of game is the most popular, Keno Machines are also present in the casinos.
The main poker machine is the “Multiline “game where you get the opportunity to win on a number of lines simultaneously and the winning lines are illuminated for you.
Multiplier slots give you the opportunity to vary the amount you bet on each of your chosen lines (or ways).
Most of the pokies are a combination of the “Multiline and the Multiplier “ which means you can play as many lines as you wish for as much or as little as you please.
The operation of the pokies is simple, you insert your coins ($1 coins) these days, select the options you wish to play then press the Start/Spin button.
The slots come in varying denominations, form 1 cent usually up to $2 so in theory if you were playing a 1-cent machine by one line it would cost you 1 cent per spin.
When you have finished playing, you can cash out (if you have any cash left!) and the machine will pay you out either in cash or vouchers.
Most Australian Casinos and Clubs have some of the slots designated “Progressive Jackpots “ where the jackpot increases with each play usually on a linked basis where there could be any number of other slots all contributing to the jackpot.
