It is well known that New Zealanders enjoy gambling.
All the main New Zealand cities have a large, Vegas style, casinos, and every city right down to small town, has clubs and pubs with pokie machine rooms.
Pokies are a huge part of New Zealand culture.
In the modern computer-reliant world online pokies rival any pokie machine in a club or casino.
Internet casino software is so sophisticated with amazing graphics, colours and sounds that it is easy to enjoy the sights and sounds online in the same way as enjoying land-based games.
Land-based casinos have suffered in recent years due to the increased availability of online gaming, and online pokies are amongst the most popular games in New Zealand.
