Fibonacci series (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc.) is used to reflect the uncertainty and complexity of the work.
Larger numbers in the Fibonacci series indicate higher uncertainty and complexity.
Using Fibonacci series prevents teams from spending too much time on detailed estimation.

Accepted Answer

Planning Poker is a collaborative estimation technique used by Agile teams to estimate the effort or complexity of user stories or backlog items.
Story points are not meant to represent the actual effort or time required to complete a task. Instead, they are used to provide a relative estimate of the complexity or effort involved in comparison to other user stories. The Fibonacci sequence (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc.) provides a natural progression of numbers that helps reflect the increasing uncertainty and variability associated with larger and more complex tasks.
