摘要： A system and methods for betting on casino related games, events or actions. There is a present and recurring need for new bet types that may increase excitement for players and that may be advantageous to both the bettor and to the bet-taking establishment. According to one example, casino-related events may include casino game-related events and events related to other activities of the casino. For example, casino game-related events may include predicting the outcome of a particular game, predicting whether or not a given slot machine will pay out a jackpot in excess of a given amount (e.g., $5,000) within a given time period, predicting how many people will win more than a given amount at blackjack on a particular day or during some other time period, and many other events. Events associated with casino games may be related to any game played at the casino including, but not limited to keno, bingo, poker, blackjack, slots, baccarat, and roulette. According to example, non-game-related events may be associated with anything occurring at the casino, such as, but not limited to, events related to entertainment at the casino (e.g., whether a performer will miss a show in the next month due to the flu), ratings (e.g., does the casino resort obtain four stars in the next Mobil guide), or foot traffic (e.g., when will the one millionth person visit the casino). Any event that will have a known, unambiguous outcome at some point in time may provide the basis for a bet. In one example, bets may be placed upon any casino-related event that occurs randomly.

摘要： A player is permitted to play in a tournament involving one or more instances of an online game. In one specific example, the player may choose, at a point of sale (POS), a tournament option that permits the player to play in a tournament-style game involving multiple game instances of a primary game. In one example, the primary game is a slot machine type game. In this way, the player may be permitted to enjoy the feeling of playing in a tournament against other players in the environment of an online game. In another example, the primary game result is driven by the result of a secondary game, such as a lottery or casino-based drawing (e.g., a Keno drawing). The secondary game is then played, and the result of the overall tournament is determined based on the results of the secondary game instances. Results of the secondary game instances and the result of the tournament are sent to an online gaming system. The player is then permitted to play an online game to reveal the results of the secondary game instances and the result of the overall tournament.
