starts a\n        round, a random result is generated, and the game evaluates the final\n        symbol arrangement against its paytable. The visible reels provide the\n        animation and presentation, while the game\u2019s mathematical system\n        determines the result.\n      <\/p>\n\n      <p>\n        Different pokies can use paylines, adjacent-reel combinations, clusters\n        or changing reel structures. They may also include wild symbols,\n        scatters, free spins, multipliers, jackpots and optional feature\n        purchases.
