The Ultimate Guide to Winning More Often on the Pokies

Hints & Tips

One thing to note with gambling is that there is no guarentee to win.. pokies pay out on a total random nature. I have compiled together from a number of sources some hints and tips that should increase your chances of winning.

Play Online

As I have indicated on this site you have a far greater chance of winning on an online pokie compared to a physical machine located at your local club. With an average payout percentage of 98% why wouldn't you give it a go.

Identify a Paying Machine

All pokie machines have a different payout percentage. These can average from 85%-97%. A good example is the popular Queen of the Nile pokie. It's average payout would be between 87%-94% and it carrys a winning spin ratio of 1 in 7.79 spins. I will further update the site in further with some specs on popular pokies.

Have a look at the Audit Screen

Next time you see an attendant view the audit screen of the pokie have a sneek peak. It is illegal to touch them unless you are authorised. Quickly have a look at he Credits In and Credits Out figure... you will be able to roughly work out the payout percentage of the pokie. The higher the percentage the more chance of winning.

Check out the Pokie Meter

Most of the older pokies have a meter which displays information on credits in, credits out etc. Some meters are blacked out in some areas but you will find alot that are visible. Simply work out your winning percentage by dividing the coin in figure by the coin out... quite easy

Word of Mouth

Listen to what the locals are saying about the pokies at there club. The machines you want to avoid are the ones that people claim "this machine hasn't been paying out all day." What you want to hear is "I often win on this one."

Avoid the end machine

A good trick of many casinos is to place a low paying pokie at the end of a "busy" corridor or exit as someone will always be likely to throw in their last dollar. It is not like the movies where your last dollar wins a big amount... its all amount pokie placement.

Don't play pokies that are close to tables

Casino's take in alot of money from table players. One thing they don't want them to see is a winning pokie as it will entice them off the table and to a pokie. It is unlikely you will find a winning machine near a table.

Gamble what you can afford

This is very important... only gamble what you can afford. Gambling addiction can be a disease which strikes many. Pokies should be considered a recreational activity and NOT a source of income. If you believe it will make you an income you better quickly snap out of that idea.
