Game event-based funding for a progressive wagering game

Abstract

A gaming device includes a processor circuit and a memory including machine-readable instructions that cause the processor circuit to receive a wager and allocate a first portion of the wager to a first progressive pot. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to determine a game result for the wagering game. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to, based on the game result comprising a first game result, allocate a second portion of the wager to a second progressive pot. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to, based on the game result comprising a second game result, award a portion of the first progressive pot to a player of the wagering game. The instructions further cause the processor circuit to, based on the game result comprising a third game result, award a portion of the second progressive pot to the player.
