Abstract
Methods and systems in which a plurality of plays is offered on a plurality of games, wherein the math model of a first game differs from the math model of a second game and wherein the player may specify at least one of the first and second games to receive additional plays and/or additional wagering.
Claims26
An electronic gaming system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one display device;
- at least one random number generator;
- at least one input device;
- and
- at least one memory device storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to operate with the at least one display device and the at least one input device to enable the gaming system to:
- a) display a first independent game and a second independent game on the at least one display device responsive to receiving input data relating to an amount available for wagering through the at least one input device, wherein the first independent game and the second independent game are each associated with a set of game outcome determination parameters from one or more pools of game outcome determination parameters stored in the at least one memory device;
- b) receive one or more game play selections from the at least one input device, the one or more game play selections identifying the first independent game to play for a first wager amount and identifying the second independent game to play for a second wager amount;
- c) generate game outcomes for the first independent game and the second independent game responsive to receiving the one or more game play selections, wherein the game outcome for the first independent game is determined by an association of the first independent game with a first set of game outcome determination parameters and the game outcome for the second independent game is determined by an association of the second independent game with a second set of game outcome determination parameters, wherein at least one of the association of the first independent game with the first set of game outcome determination parameters and the association of the second independent game with the second set of game outcome determination parameters is responsive to satisfaction of a threshold condition, wherein the threshold condition is based on the generation of one or more predefined game outcomes in at least one of the first independent game or the second independent game;
- and
- d) distribute any award determined by the generated game outcomes for the first independent game and the second independent game, wherein the determined award is enabled for wagering through the input device.

A method of providing electronic games on an electronic gaming device, the electronic gaming device including at least one processor, at least one display device, at least one random number generator, at least one input device, and at least one memory device storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to operate with the at least one display device, the at least one random number generator and the at least one input device, all in connection with the method comprising the steps of:
- a) displaying a first independent game and a second independent game on the at least one display device responsive to receiving input data relating to an amount available for wagering through the at least one input device;
- b) the at least one processor associating the first independent game with a first set of game outcome determination parameters for determining the game outcome of the first independent game and the second independent game with a second set of game outcome determination parameters for determining the game outcome of the second independent game, the first and second sets of game outcome determination parameters being associated from one or more pools of game outcome determination parameters stored in the at least one memory device;
- c) receiving one or more game play selections from the at least one input device for a round of play, the one or more game play selections identifying the first independent game to play for a first wager amount and identifying the second independent game to play for a second wager amount;
- d) the at least one processor and the at least one random number generator generating game outcomes for a round of play of the first independent game and the second independent game responsive to receiving the one or more game play selections;
- and
- e) the at least one processor determining whether a threshold condition is satisfied, wherein responsive to the threshold condition being satisfied the at least one processor conducts step b) prior to generating game outcomes for a subsequent round of play and wherein the threshold condition is based on the generation of one or more predefined game outcomes in at least one of the first independent game or the second independent game.

- and
- d) distribute any award determined by the generated game outcomes for the first independent game and the second independent game, wherein the determined award is enabled for wagering through the input device.
