    摘要: A signalling system includes a gaming server operable under program control to regulate the progress of a multiplayer game in accordance with game play decisions made, in turn, by each of the participating players, a user terminal for each player, and a display monitor associated with each user terminal. Each user terminal is operable by a player to access the gaming server along a communication channel and to make game play decisions. Each display monitor is responsive to communication from the gaming server to display to a player an indicium, in the form of a graphic icon, representing a status of that player's participation in the game. The status is a pending state where that player is next in turn to make a game play decision, and a completed state where the player is not next in turn to make a game play decision. Each display monitor also displays a separate indicium for each participating player, each indicium representing a status of the participation in the game of a respective one of the participating players. Each graphic icon represents the status of a player's participation in the game by means of a colour, the pending state being represented by a red colour of the graphic icon, and the pending state being represented by a red colour of the graphic icon, and the completed state being represented by a green colour. Each graphic icon has a corresponding nameplate used for identifying a respective one of the participating players.

    摘要: A gaming apparatus includes a player terminal operable by a player to simulate a slots game, and a random event generator for generating a random event upon which an outcome of the slots game is based. The slots game has a plurality of successful outcomes, each successful outcome causing the player to win a corresponding prize. A wagering facility enables the player to place a wager on the occurrence of any specific successful outcome of the slots game, or to make a plurality of different wagers, each corresponding to a different specific one of the successful outcomes of the slots game. The different specific successful outcomes include a favourable outcome and a number of intermediate outcomes. The player's prize corresponding to the favourable outcome is a jackpot prize, while that corresponding to an intermediate outcome is repayment of the player's wager at fixed odds inversely proportional to the probability of that intermediate outcome occurring. The wagering facility enables the player to designate a size of an overall wager, the overall wager being applied as equal wagers on the occurrence of each one of the successful outcomes of the slots game.
