The picks are allegedly used to jam poker machine buttons in place to allow continuous play — something that is against gaming rules.

"What it does is it turns a machine, where you are supposed to make a decision every time you push the button, into a fully automatic device … and [it] will consume literally hundreds of dollars in a very short space of time," Dr Livingstone said.

I've never heard of a "pick", but it seems like they are saying they had players jamming all the buttons with little piece of plastic (including the 5 hold button) which would make it snap deal and hold all 5 cards at lightning speed. wtf.

RTP must be under 10%

Poker machines usually means slot machines in general in Australia and New Zealand.

And just about anything can be jammed into the spin button: ATM cards, matchstick, whatever
