Volatility compared
Volatility describes how results are spread out — not how likely you are to come out ahead.
| Volatility | How results feel | Balance swings | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low | Frequent small returns | Gentle | Sessions tend to last longer on the same budget |
| Medium | A mix of small and mid-sized results | Moderate | The most common profile for video pokies |
| High | Long dry spells, occasional big results | Sharp | A budget can run out quickly — set a limit first |

What does RTP mean?
Return to player is the percentage of all money staked on a game that is paid back to players over a very large number of plays. A 96% RTP does not mean you get back $96 for every $100 in a session.
Are pokie results random?
Yes. Each spin is decided by a random number generator. Previous spins have no effect on the next one, and no pattern or system can change that.
What is a jackpot-linked pokie?
It is a game connected to a jackpot pool. The pool grows as people play and is awarded at random according to the game rules.
Can I set a limit before I play pokies?
Yes — and you should. Decide on a budget and a time limit before you start, and stop when you reach either one. Our Responsible Gambling page lists free support services and tools.
