Benefits of technology

One object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive gaming method and system that allows a player to receive an enhanced payoff based on achieving a predetermined number of consecutive wins at a game of chance.
In accordance with these and other objects which will become apparent below, the gaming method and system of the present invention is based on a consecutive game win / lose monitoring technique which allows an operator, such as a dealer, to keep track of each individual player's consecutive wins or losses.
In the event that a player selects more than two consecutive wins (i.e. three or four consecutive wins) the streak chip, after two consecutive wins is moved to the marker indicating three consecutive wins, and so forth. The streak chip and streak marker locations are designed to simplify and ease the responsibility of the dealer in the monitoring of consecutive win bets.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, using prior art gaming tables and systems, there has not been an efficient way for casinos and casino dealers to keep track of consecutive wins or losses by a player at a particular time in order to readily determine and calculate payoffs based on successive wins or losses.
Such a simplified and yet efficient system is lacking in the prior art.

Betting areas 15 are provided for each player to receive a chip or chips representing a conventional blackjack bet and / or a consecutive wins bet, the detailed arrangement being shown in FIG. 2. Placed convenient to each player seating area 12 and bett...

third embodiment

FIG. 5 is the system where the game of chance is craps played at a craps table 71. Similar to the blackjack and roulette tables described above, a conventional craps table 71 is modified by distributing a plurality of betting areas and placing them at each multiple player standing area 72 which is also convenient to the croupier. Each betting area 75 includes a chip receiving pattern as shown in FIG. 2, which is used by the player and dealer to make a bet and further to monitor the consecutive wins or losses in order to determine if a player is entitled to an enhanced payoff. In the game of craps, and in this embodiment of the system, the player also has the choice of indicating whether the player believes he will win or lose and so indicating by selection of player win or player loss which can be identified by replacing the original bet circle with one circle for win or one for lose. Thus, the player can achieve an enhanced payoff by placing a bet which indicates that he believes h...
