How to play Plinko

Plinko is as simple as games get. A ball drops from the top of a board, bounces left or right off every peg it hits, and lands in one of the slots along the bottom. Each slot pays a multiple of your bet.

The fun is in the bounce. Every peg is a coin flip, so you never know where the ball will end up until it lands.

How a round works

1. Choose your bet.
2. Choose a risk level: low, medium or high.
3. Drop the ball. It bounces through 12 rows of pegs and lands in a slot.
4. The slot's multiplier times your bet is paid out, chips included.

Why the middle hits most often

After 12 random left-or-right bounces, the ball ends up near the middle far more often than at the edges. To reach the outside slot it has to bounce the same way twelve times in a row, which happens about once in four thousand drops. That is why the edge slots pay the most and the centre slots pay the least.

What the risk levels change

Tips

• Low risk is the one for long sessions. You will see lots of small wins and few surprises.
• High risk is a lottery ticket: most drops return less than you bet, and the occasional edge hit is where the excitement is.
• Every drop is independent. A run of middle slots does not make an edge slot more likely next time.
• Set a number of drops before you start, and stop when you reach it.
