Claims20
A gaming system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one display device;
- at least one input device;
- and
- at least one memory device that stores 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:
- (a) display a plurality of rotors, each of the plurality of rotors including a plurality of different outcomes, each of the plurality of different outcomes being associated with one of a plurality of different first characteristics and one of a plurality of different second characteristics;
- (b) receive a wager from a player, said wager being associated with at least one of:
- (i) one of the plurality of different first characteristics, and (ii) one of the plurality of different second characteristics;
- (c) display each of the plurality of rotors spinning independent of one another;
- (d) for each of the plurality of rotors:
- (i) determine one of the outcomes of said rotor,
- (ii) stop said rotor from spinning, and
