A casino gaming system includes gaming machines which are configured to accept and read tickets. The ticket may comprise cash-value tickets or non-cash value tickets. The tickets may also include secondary feature triggering indicia. A player may obtain a ticket from a system kiosk. The player may then present that ticket to a gaming machine, such as by inserting it into a media reader such as a bill acceptor. Associated monetary value or non-monetary credits may be credited to the machine. In addition, if the ticket includes a feature triggering indicia, when such an indicia is detected, the gaming machine preferably triggers or initiates the feature.

A slot machine includes: a liquid crystal display unit which has a plurality of defined areas provided in a matrix pattern, and which stops symbols after the symbols are scrolled in the respective defined areas; and a controller which sets defined-area groups including the plurality of defined areas, which counts, for each of the defined-area groups, any one of the number of bonus games in which a “JOKER” symbol is stopped in each of the defined-area groups and the number of the “JOKER” symbols stopped in execution of the bonus game to which a shift is made from a basic game, and which changes a payout to a player according to the count value for a specific defined-area group.

In a symbol providing game or video poker game, the player makes a wager to play an underlying symbol providing game such as a slot-type game or a draw poker game. An additional or side bet may be required to utilize the discard gameplay option. A predetermined number of cards are dealt face-up to form an initial hand. The player may select to hold none, one, some or all of the dealt cards. The player then may choose none or at least one of the unheld cards (“discards”)—if any discards are available—to receive a narrowed selection of possible replacement cards. The narrowing of the number of possible replacement cards will most likely increase the odds of receiving a replacement card that will ultimately enhance the initial deal. The narrowed replacement card selection is based on predetermined criteria relative to the discard, a player selection, or a processor selected basis.

In a method of wagering, one or more primary bettors place wagers having an applicable base take-out or rake rate, and thus yielding a base payout for winning wagers. One or more secondary bettors may place wagers having an applicable modified take-out or rake rate (preferably lower than the base take-out or rake rate), thus yielding a higher payout for winning wagers than the base payout. The wagering may occur relative to card games such as poker, or other types of games or events, including sports betting. Bets may be placed with a host, such as a casino or track, or an off-track entity.

Consequently, the CONSUMER CLAIM SOLUTION SOFTWARE [CCSS] program affords the user a comprehensive feedback on all of the pertinent variables of an automobile accident scenario. It also provides options for inclusion in the proposed negotiation which are designed to place the user within the same scope of expertise as the insurance professional in which the user will negotiate, thus providing a potentially more lucrative settlement.

The CONSUMER CLAIM SOLUTION SOFTWARE [CCSS] program presented herein greatly enhances the consumer's ability to satisfactorily settle an automobile accident claim case, and simultaneously minimizes the time and expense of maintaining and processing the claim for an insurance company. The longer large numbers of claims remain open, the more costly it is to property & casualty insurers. A quicker settlement, even if with a higher claimant payout is preferable to a longer tail, involving human resources costs, and a nominally higher payout to a representing Attorney.

A casino card game utilizes standard playing cards to define a player hand. A first game component is resolved based on a numerical hand result of the player hand determined according to either a modulo 10 count system or a conventional count system, while a second game component is resolved based on a numerical hand result of the player hand determined according to the other of a modulo 10 count system or a conventional count system. In one operating mode, the first game component is Blackjack, and a wager on the second game component is resolved on the player initial two-card hand based on a modulo 10 count system consistent with the principles of Baccarat.

A game system according to the present invention includes a plurality of slot machines and a common game machine. The plurality of slot machines each includes: a display having a symbol display region for displaying plural types of symbols in a matrix form; a memory for cumulatively storing bonus points in the case where the specific symbol is rearranged under a specific condition; and a controller. The common game machine is provided in common to the plurality of slot machines. The common game machine has: a common display device having a symbol display region for displaying plural types of symbols in a matrix form; a common memory for cumulatively storing a part of credit having been bet; and a common controller for selecting a column or row of a matrix displayed on the display device of each of the slot machines and rearranging, on the common display device, the symbol to be rearranged in the column or row. The common controller selects the slot machine possessing the bonus points, and executes the bonus game on the common display device. The common controller subtracts the bonus points of each of the slot machines every time the bonus game is executed, and executes the bonus game until the bonus points become zero. The common controller awards a prize determined based on a cumulative value of the credit stored in the common memory, in the case where a predetermined condition is met.

A casino gaming system includes gaming machines which are configured to accept and read tickets. The ticket may comprise cash-value tickets or non-cash value/promotional tickets. The tickets may also include secondary feature triggering indicia. The player may present the cash-value ticket having a feature triggering indicia or a non-cash value/promotional ticket to a gaming machine, such as by inserting it into a media reader such as a bill acceptor. Associated monetary value or non-monetary credits may be credited to the machine. In addition, if the ticket includes a feature triggering indicia, when such an indicia is detected, the gaming machine preferably triggers or initiates the feature.

According to a gaming system of the present invention, the control device cumulatively counts a part of the number of game media betted in each of the slot machines, as a cumulative value, and transmits cumulative-value information based on the cumulative value obtained by the counting to the slot machines. The slot machine determines the number of special symbols that can be displayed to the symbol display, based on the received cumulative-value information.
