Abstract
Some implementations of the invention allow a player to specify type(s) of wagering conditions about which the player would like to receive notification. The player may also be able to specify the mode of notification desired, e.g., text message, email, voice message, etc. Wager gaming notification parameters may, for example, comprise information regarding an occurrence of a wager gaming outcome. Some such wager gaming notification parameters may involve an occurrence (or a non-occurrence) of a wager gaming outcome within a specified time or a specified number of plays. Player notifications may include raw data, probability data, graphical data, navigation data and/or location data.
