Claims9
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor configured to control:
- receiving an indication of a first bet on a first set of numbers;
- facilitating a spinning of a first wheel, in which the first wheel comprises a plurality of first positions, with each first position comprising at least one first respective number;
- determining a first number resulting from the spinning of the first wheel, in which the first number corresponds to a position of a ball on the first wheel, in which the first number corresponds to a first number in the first set of numbers;
- in response to determining that the first number corresponds to the first number in the first set of numbers, facilitating a spinning of a second wheel, in which the second wheel comprises a plurality of second positions, with each second position comprising at least one second respective number;
- determining a second number resulting from a spinning of the second wheel, in which the second number corresponds to a position of the ball on the second wheel, in which the ball is transported from the first wheel to the second wheel;
- and
- determining an outcome of the first bet based at least in part on the first number and the second number.

An apparatus comprising:
- a first wheel, in which the first wheel comprises a plurality of first positions, in which each first position comprises at least one respective first number;
- and
- at least one processor configured to control:
- determining a first outcome corresponding to a first ball stopping at one of the first positions of the first wheel,
- determining that the first outcome has at least one desired characteristic, and
- in response to determining that the first outcome has the at least one desired characteristic, facilitating a launching of a second ball.
