Title:
GAMING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING ENHANCED PLAYER PARTICIPATION IN LOTTERY GAMES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/109235
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
A lottery gaming system (10) utilizes one or more pools (24) of predetermined
game play records (25). In response to a game play request, the gaming system allocates
a number or set of game play records. A representation for each allocated game
play record is then displayed to the player in some fashion that does not indicate
the result of the respective game play record (25), and the requesting player
is allowed to select one or more of the allocated game play records through the
respective representations. The selected game play record or records (25) are
assigned to the player and the player ultimately sees the result associated with
each selected game play record. However, the allocated game play records that
are not selected by the player, and thus remain unassigned, are collected or otherwise
made available for use in response to another game play request.
