摘要： In accordance with some embodiments, a plurality of outcomes are generated and used to create a video presentation of representative outcomes (e.g., for a roulette game) for one or more players. The video presentation is recorded onto a tangible medium (e.g., DVD or CD-ROM) or otherwise provided to one or more players (e.g., a player may access the video presentation online). This allows one or more players to purchase a video presentation of (e.g., predetermined) outcomes in a jurisdiction in which gambling is legal yet view the presentation at the player's convenience (e.g., from any jurisdiction and at any time). At least one player who is associated with such a video presentation may subsequently redeem it for a redemption value associated therewith.

摘要： In accordance with some embodiments, a plurality of outcomes are generated and used to create a video presentation of representative outcomes of a wagering game. The video presentation is recorded onto a tangible medium (e.g., DVD or CD-ROM) or otherwise provided to a player (e.g., the player may access the video presentation online). This allows a player to purchase a video presentation of predetermined outcomes in a jurisdiction in which gambling is legal yet view the presentation at the player's convenience (e.g., from any jurisdiction and at any time). The player is also offered to determine a result associated with at least one local game play, wherein the offer requires use of an electronic game device located in a legalized gambling jurisdiction to determine the local game play result. In some embodiments, a purchaser of the video presentation may subsequently redeem it for a total redemption value that is associated with both a redemption value for the tangible medium and with the results achieved from the local game play.

摘要： A wagering method is provided that allows players to purchase a gaming session comprising a plurality of game outcomes at a flat rate price. The number of game outcomes available in the gaming session may be a function of time in lieu of a specified number of game outcomes. In order to increase the attractiveness of the bulk purchase of gaming outcomes, contracts may be offered that discount the flat rate price, providing a more economical alternative to the purchase of game outcomes on a per play basis. The discount may be offered, for example, on the basis of the number of game outcomes purchased in bulk, the number of players participating in a purchase, special promotional codes, etc.

摘要： In accordance with some embodiments, there is provided a method, apparatus and article of manufacture for providing a flat rate play session using a gaming device. The flat rate play session may define a duration of, for example, a period of time, a number of game plays, and/or a number of qualifying events. In some embodiments, a flat rate play session may define a game and a wager amount per game play. In some embodiments, an offer for an extension of a flat rate play session may be determined and output. For example, based on a value of a credit balance at the end of a flat rate play session it may be determined that a player qualifies to purchase an additional number of game plays (e.g., to be played under a modified payout schedule in which only a subset of payout combinations are active) in exchange for the value.

摘要： A wagering method is provided that allows players or gaming establishments to specify conditions which when satisfied, reconfigure the gaming device to change game play from a first game to a second game. The condition may depend upon the value of a parameter-generally related to game play—to determine if the condition is valid and triggers the reconfiguration. The second game may be selected from a game on the same gaming device, from a game on a different gaming device, or a game played by a specific player.
