There is no actual date documented when the word 'Pokies' was first used but it has become the standard name for Slot Games in Australia. There was a time where many pubs and casinos had Video Poker machines in them which were all called Poker Machines. This was broken down into the slang word 'Pokies' which seems to have stuck with the Australians until this day.
