• and
• identifying whether the plurality of gaming elements comprise a single wager or a plurality of distinct wagers placed on the particular physical wager placement position and for the particular game wagering opportunity by:

• (b) receiving second data indicating a second time of movement, the second time of movement corresponding to a movement of at least one second gaming element recognized by the gaming element detecting mechanism associated with the particular physical wager placement position;
• (c) determining a time interval between the first time and the second time;
• and
• (d) making a first determination that the at least one first gaming element and the at least one second gaming element comprise a single wager if the time interval is less than a maximum time interval, otherwise making a second determination that the at least one first gaming element and the at least one second gaming element comprise two distinct wagers.
