Selection of Online Pokies Tips

Fancy winning regularly at pokies – or even scooping a 1 million plus jackpot? Then check out our top 10 pokie gaming tips to spin with power and maximize your entertainment.......

1. Pokie Fun

Pokies should always be about fun. Everyone wants to scoop cool winning spins and ideally a progressive jackpot to become rich beyond their dreams – but there are no guarantees! Play for the pleasure of the cool themes and spin features, and then any wins become a cool bonus.

2. Lucky Spins

Online pokies deliver better average payouts than the machines found in pubs and casinos. However, despite payouts often over 90%, winning is all about finding random luck (whether you win 1 coin x3 cherries or x10,000 coins for 3 x 777). There is no skill to getting lucky, so focus on a strategy that lets you play regularly in search of good fortune.

3. Pokie Budget

The perfect low-risk way to turn online pokies into a long-term and highly entertaining hobby is to set-up a budget that matches your disposable income. Remember – pokies can be played with stakes as low as 0.01, or as high as 100.00 plus! So – whether low-risk and good value means 10.00 or 100.00 plus per week, just set your limit for guaranteed fun whether you win or lose.

4. Pokie spin size and gaming volume

Once you've set a pokie gaming budget – you can spin with any method you like, as long as you quit if you hit a session or weekly limit. However, top pokie gamers play with a low risk per spin – such as 1% of their bankroll:

> 10.00 bank = max of 0.10 per spin
> 100.00 bank = max of 1.00 per spin
> 1000.00 bank = max of 10.00 per spin

The benefits of this pokie style? Well, it means it's impossible to blow a bank quickly and you get to play a higher volume of pokie rounds with the same budget.

5. Level stakes Pokie gambling strategy

It's even more powerful if you combine the tip above with 'level stakes' pokie wagers. All this means is playing each pokie spin with exactly the same stake level – such as 0.10 or 1.00 etc. This strategy stops you chasing losses or playing with a volatile strategy that can lead to bigger losses and smaller winning spins due to bad luck. Using this approach in the long run can potentially deliver profits with just a little bit of good luck. For example, let's say you build a bank big enough to sustain 10.00 per spin; even a 1 coin profit would deliver 10.00 winnings! Unless you hit big jackpots, this is the best chance of regular success against the pokies.

6. Spin regularly

Pokie luck can strike either way at any moment and most players go through hot and cold games when they play. However, you can boost your chances of getting your fair share of luck by simply playing regularly. Some pokie jackpot winners manage to strike it lucky the first time they ever play pokies – but for most of us we need to search out those hot spins! The tips above will help you play for longer and get more pokie sessions on the same budget.

7. Multiple pokie banks

Splitting your budget between more than one casino can be a cool way to spread your pokie risk. For example, let's say you have 100.00 to play pokies with for the month:

> Option 1: 100.00 Spin Palace Pokies
> Option 2: 50.00 Spin Palace Pokies, 50.00 Mummys Gold Casino

Try this method and see which one gives you more gaming, bonuses and winning sessions!

8. Free spin pokies and bonuses

Free spin pokies and bonuses are a cool way to boost your value for money. Many online arcades and casinos offer free-play no deposit bonus cash plus the chance to bank match bonuses (such as deposit 100.00 get 100.00 free). Check out the pokie game specifications before you play to see the Free Spin features; you can often find 10-100 free spins available! What's more, free spin wins are usually multiplied by 100-400%!

9. Spin power

Many online pokies have multiple coin options and coin sizes, which heavily influence potential rewards and the number of chances to win. For example:

> 1 coin = 1 pay lines and 1000 coin jackpot
> 2 coins = 2 pay lines and 2000 coin jackpot
> 3 coins = 3 pay lines and 3000 coin jackpot

Ideally – max-out the coin number for more chances to win on the pay lines , then use the highest coin size that your spin limit permits (don't get greedy though – use a coin size you can afford to sustain!).

10. Jackpot search

The biggest online pokie jackpots are the progressive machines such as Major Millions, King Cashalot and an array of other huge games. Always check the casinos to see the jackpot level – if it's over 1 million and hasn't been won for a while, it could be time to try your luck. Tip – reserve a portion of your weekly or monthly pokie bank for a crack at the jackpot when the time is right.
