ThePokies101 — Pokies Basics for Australia
ThePokies101 is a beginner-friendly Australian pokies page. It explains the fundamentals in plain English so you can understand what you are playing before you start.
Pokies are random outcomes driven by RNG. That means short sessions can swing either way, and “patterns” are not reliable. What you can control is game selection, budgeting, and whether you accept bonus terms.
Pokies fundamentals
- RNG: each spin is independent and random.
- RTP: long-run theoretical return, varies by game version.
- Volatility: how much wins tend to swing over time.
Simple habits that help
- Play for entertainment, not income.
- Set limits before you start and stick to them.
- Read the rules screen and promo terms.
