POKIE SPEC CARD
A paytable is the rulebook for the exact game loaded. It explains which symbols pay, where combinations begin, what wilds can replace and how features start. Reading it once prevents assumptions imported from another title with similar reels or artwork.
Open the current 23Pokies lobbyCheck whether matching symbols pay left to right, both ways, on adjacent reels or anywhere for special symbols. Note the minimum matching count and whether the combination must begin on a specified reel. This determines which reel patterns actually qualify.
A wild may substitute for regular symbols but exclude scatters, bonuses or jackpots. A scatter can pay independently of lines or only trigger a feature. Record the exceptions shown in the rules rather than assuming every special icon behaves the same.
Confirm the number and location of symbols needed to enter free spins, respins or a hold feature. Then read whether retriggers are possible, whether the stake is locked and whether multipliers reset. Entry artwork alone does not explain the feature state.
For fixed or progressive jackpots, identify any minimum stake, eligible mode or special combination. A jackpot amount displayed in the game is not proof that every stake participates. The paytable or jackpot rules should state the qualifying condition.
No. The exact scatter rule is stated in the selected game's paytable.
Only when the rules expressly allow it; many games exclude scatters, bonuses or jackpots.
Not always. Check for a minimum stake or eligible-mode condition.
