摘要： The invention includes a system and method for presenting forward commitment agreements to consumers proximate to a benefit dispensing device such as a vending machine or an automatic teller machine. A controller is in communication with one or more benefit dispensing devices and one or more merchant devices. Merchants devise forward commitment agreements to be offered to consumers. Such agreements specify a benefit that will be provided to a consumer immediately if the consumer agrees to fulfill a commitment in the future. Using a merchant device, a merchant communicates descriptions of the forward commitment agreements to the controller. When a consumer subsequently accesses a benefit dispensing device, the controller, via the benefit dispensing device, offers a forward commitment agreement to the consumer. If the consumer chooses to enter into the forward commitment agreement, then the benefit dispensing device provides the consumer with an immediate benefit. In some embodiments, the merchant subsequently reimburses the controller for the benefit provided to the consumer.

摘要： A method and system for remote play of a gaming device, such as a slot machine. A player enters play preferences at a remote wagering terminal. The remote wagering terminal transmits the play preferences to a slot network server that stores the play preferences. Based upon the play preferences, the slot network server identifies one or more slot machines and transmits outcome data from those slot machines to the remote wagering terminal. The outcome data may be live or historical. In one embodiment of the present invention, the slot network service generates simulated outcome data to the remote wagering terminal. The slot network server keeps track of the player's wins and losses based upon the outcome data.

摘要： A gaming device such as a video based gaming device provides a player the ability to modify at least one element of the gaming device. The gaming device may then modify other elements to ensure a desired house advantage. The probability of occurrence for one or more outcomes, the payout corresponding to one or more outcomes, and the wager amount required to play a game, may be modified by a player. The gaming device may then automatically determine changes in the values of other elements in order to maintain a constant house advantage. The player may also impose constraints on the value of one or more elements so that the gaming device cannot change the constrained elements in maintaining the house advantage. Software running on the gaming device may use an equation that takes into account pertinent elements such as the size of the jackpot, the size of the wager needed to play each game, and probability of hitting the jackpot during a game. Based on the equation, the software may adjust elements other than the element(s) specified by the player so that, for example, the house advantage remains constant with each game. A player interface provides an easy to use method of modifying selected elements.
摘要翻译：诸如基于视频的游戏设备的游戏设备为玩家提供了修改游戏设备的至少一个元件的能力。游戏设备然后可以修改其他元件以确保期望的房屋优势。一个或多个结果发生的概率，对应于一个或多个结果的支付以及玩游戏所需的投注金额可以由玩家修改。游戏设备然后可以自动地确定其他元素的值的变化，以便维持恒定的房屋优势。播放器还可以对一个或多个元素的值施加约束，使得游戏设备在维持房屋优势时不能改变约束元素。在游戏设备上运行的软件可以使用考虑相关元素的等式，例如累积奖金的大小，玩游戏所需的赌注的大小以及在游戏中击中累积奖金的概率。基于该方程式，软件可以调整除了玩家指定的元素之外的元素，使得例如每个游戏的房屋优势保持不变。播放器界面提供了一种易于使用的修改所选元素的方法。
