There are many different theories about different casino games and how best to beat the odds in order to up your chances of a win. With some games, certain skills and tactics can most certainly be employed to help you score a payout; games such as Poker, Blackjack and even online arcade games all involve a certain level of skill in order to win.
Pokies however are a different story. Pokies are games completely of chance, games that use a Random Number Generator (RNG) each time the Reels are spun to come up with a completely random number combination. This randomly generated number will then equate to a different combination of symbols that appears on the Reels. In this way, each and every spin of the Reels is entirely independent from those that preceded, or shall follow it.
With this in mind, consider the likelihood that certain colours, flashing lights or sounds made by an online or real life pokie game indicate when a win is about to occur. Fact is, there's absolutely no way to predict a pokie win – but isn't that part of the fun? One reason pokies are so popular the world over is that they give everyone the same fair chance to be a winner. We never know who will scoop what prize at any time and neither do you, but that's precisely what makes pokies so compelling.
