Systems and methods for providing an electronic card game with increasing free games multipliers

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions embodied thereon, which when executed by a processor in communication with a memory storing one or more rules defining at least a first condition, the rules including (i) one or more predefined card combinations, (ii) a predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations, wherein the predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations depends on a probability of displaying the corresponding card combination of the one or more predefined card combinations, and (iii) for each free game of the predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations, a set of one or more possible multiplier values, cause the processor to:

• generate, on a display device in communication with the processor, a base game outcome that includes display of at least one hand of cards;
• in response to generating the base game outcome, compare the at least one hand of cards to the one or more predefined card combinations stored in the memory, to determine that a first condition is satisfied for triggering a free games feature;
• in response to the first condition being satisfied, determine a number of free game outcomes to generate based on the at least one hand of cards, each of the free game outcomes associated with a corresponding multiplier specified by the set of one or more possible multiplier values;
• after determining the number of free game outcomes to generate, generate a first free game outcome of the free games feature that includes display of a first free hand of cards, wherein a first multiplier is applied to an award associated with the first free game outcome;
• and
• in response to the first condition being satisfied and after the first free game outcome is generated, generate a second free game outcome of the free games feature that includes display of a second free hand of cards, wherein a second multiplier is applied to an award associated with the second free game outcome, the second multiplier being greater than the first multiplier.

A computer-implemented method of providing a game on an electronic gaming system, the computer-implemented method performed by a processor in communication with a memory storing one or more rules defining at least a first condition, the rules including (i) one or more predefined card combinations, and (ii) a predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations, wherein the predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations depends on a probability of displaying the corresponding card combination of the one or more predefined card combinations, and (iii) for each free game of the predefined number of free games associated with each of the one or more predefined card combinations, a set of one or more possible multiplier values, the computer-implemented method comprising:

• generating a base game outcome that includes display of at least one hand of cards on a display device of the electronic gaming system;
• in response to generating the base game outcome, comparing the at least one hand of cards to the one or more predefined card combinations stored in the memory, to determine that a first condition is satisfied for triggering a free games feature;
• in response to the first condition being satisfied, determining a number of free game outcomes to generate based on the at least one hand of cards, each of the free game outcomes associated with a corresponding multiplier specified by the set of one or more possible multiplier values;
• after determining the number of free game outcomes to generate, generating a first free game outcome of the free games feature that includes display of a first free hand of cards, wherein a first multiplier is applied to an award associated with the first free game outcome;
• and
• in response to the first condition being satisfied and after the first free game outcome is generated, generating a second free game outcome of the free games feature that includes display of a second free hand of cards, wherein a second multiplier is applied to an award associated with the second free game outcome, the second multiplier being greater than the first multiplier.
