Computing wagering game luck

One or more machine-readable storage devices having instructions stored thereon, which when executed by a set of one or more processors causes the set of one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• detecting occurrence of at least one event of a wagering game;
• determining that occurrence of the at least one event is different from a theoretical expectation of occurrence associated with the at least one event;
• and
• computing a luck factor based on the determining that the occurrence of the at least one event is different from the theoretical expectation of occurrence, wherein the luck factor represents luck for a player account associated with the wagering game.

A system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory unit configured to store instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processors, cause the system to
• cause at least one event to occur for a first wagering game content, wherein the first wagering game content is associated with a wagering game;
• determine a difference between occurrence of the at least one event and a theoretical expectation of occurrence associated with the at least one event;
• compute a luck factor based on the difference, wherein the luck factor represents luck for a player account associated with the wagering game;
• and
• use the luck factor for a second wagering game content.

An apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory unit configured to store instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to
• detect occurrence of at least one event of a wagering game,
• determine, based on a first set of rules, that the occurrence of the at least one event is different from a theoretical expectation of occurrence associated with the at least one event, wherein the first set of rules is separate from a second set of rules for the wagering game, and
• compute a luck factor based on the difference, wherein the luck factor represents luck for the occurrence of the at least one event.

An apparatus comprising:

• means for detecting at least one event of a wagering game, wherein the at least one event occurs via a random-number generation;
• means for determining a theoretical expectation of occurrence for the at least one event based on a history of game play prior to occurrence of the at least one event;
• means for determining that the occurrence of the at least one event differs from the theoretical expectation of occurrence;
• and
• means for computing a luck factor in response to the means for determining that occurrence of the at least one event differs from the theoretical expectation of occurrence for the at least one event, wherein the luck factor is a quantifiable indication of luck regarding the occurrence of the at least one event.
