摘要： The present invention is a method and apparatus enabling a low cost hardware upgrade path and low cost processor board retrofit for gaming machines. The enabling features include a two-board set made up of an industry standard form factor processor board (a single board system, able to support an operating system) coupled to an I/O adapter board, and further having a specially architected game kernel based on a UNIX-compatible operating system. The game kernel provides a consistent API to game applications, enabling quick and easy use of new hardware features while providing backward compatibility for existing game applications.

摘要： A system and method for presenting a player with simulated poker play is disclosed, where the result is actually based on a predetermined outcome. In order to create a realistic play scenario, the present invention never corrects or overrides a player's choices during the play of a hand. Rather, a new solution which incorporates a specially indicated bonus wheel or symbol is used. If a player makes choices while playing a hand that precludes the game machine from creating a needed final value corresponding to a predetermined win amount, a bonus is created to make up any difference. In addition, the way in which the apparent bonus is implemented includes seemingly random bonus awards, allowing both good and poor poker players to receive such bonuses. This further increases the realism of the play.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于呈现具有模拟扑克游戏的玩家的系统和方法，其中结果实际上基于预定的结果。为了创建一个现实的播放场景，本发明在玩手中不会纠正或者超越玩家的选择。相反，使用包含特别指示的奖励轮或符号的新解决方案。如果玩家在玩手的同时进行选择，排除了游戏机不能创建与预定胜利量对应的所需的最终值，则创建奖励以弥补任何差异。此外，明显奖金的实施方式包括看似随机的奖金奖励，允许好的和差的扑克玩家收到这样的奖金。这进一步增加了戏剧的现实性。

摘要： The specification discloses a multi-wheel game-of-chance having at least two groups of spinning wheels, wherein each group includes at least two concentric spinning wheels having a viewable surface face thereon. A plurality of indicia are positioned on the peripheral of the viewable surface face of each wheel such that all indicia on each wheel is viewable to the user. Bet areas are positioned at various locations around at least a portion of each group of wheels; along a line joining the center of any two groups of wheels; and/or a junction between various radially positioned lines extending from the center of two or more groups of wheels. Each bet area represents a possible payline with various pay ratios depending on the probability of various predetermined combinations. For instance, a one-group combination payline has the lowest pay ratio; a two-group payline requires the combination from two groups of wheels and thus, has a higher pay ratio than a one-group payline; and as additional group combination paylines are added, the higher the pay ratio can become.

摘要： The present invention includes an interactive keno game method that comprises receiving at least one player selected symbol from a player during a game session. The at least one player selected symbol is drawn from a set of game symbols. The method then proceeds to receive a condition from the player that identifies the player credits applied for each chargeable action. The condition describes the number of credits that are to be played during each chargeable action. Each chargeable action includes the picking of at least one game selected symbol from the set of game symbols. During a game session the chargeable actions are performed more than once. Additionally, if there is a match between the at least one game selected symbol and the at least one player selected symbol the game session is paused. Furthermore, a prize may be awarded to the player when the at least one player selected symbol matches the at least one game selected symbol. During the game session, the player is provided with various opportunities to terminate the game session wherein the game session outcome is achieved at least in part by the player's skill. Additionally, the interactive keno game may be terminated because the game rules require ending the game session or the player has insufficient credits to continue the game session.

摘要： A device for dispensing prizes includes a housing having a plurality of compartments, a door attached to the housing for coving the compartments, and a lock for limiting access to the compartments. The contents of the compartments are visible from the outside. Each compartment contains a prize, such as a diamond. The housing may be part of, or linked to, a gaming device. When a player wins a game, which entitles the player to select a tangible award, the device signals this fact to the player. The player then selects a compartment by pressing an input device located on the housing. An attendant opens an external door, and inserts an electronic key into a receptacle associated with the selected compartment, and enters a required code into the key. The compartment then opens, and the player obtains the prize. The device may also include an inventory control system which preferably uses an RFID apparatus for monitoring the contents of each compartment, and for keeping records of an inventory of prizes.
