    摘要: A slot machine-like game-of-chance system and method that rewards players for winning combinations of symbols when at least one symbol appears within an area of the display selected by the player. A player may select a display domain such as one or more of the columns, and receive a reward if a first predetermined symbol appears within the display domain. The player can also be awarded if a second predetermined symbol also appears in the display. The player may also receive a first random bonus payout independent of the display domain selected by the player, and the opportunity to win a second bonus payout dependent upon a player choice made prior to receiving the first random bonus payout.

    摘要: A slot machine that provides enhanced awards for consecutive spins with winning symbol combinations of any type (“Consecutive Wins”). Enhanced may be defined as any award in addition to the award indicated by the game's base level award schedule. Enhanced awards may include: any type of award (e.g., credits or free spins); any amount of award (e.g., ten times the base level award or five free spins); any combination of awards (e.g., credits and a free spin); and any schedule of enhancement (e.g., five times the base level credits for the first three consecutive wins and ten times the base level credits for any additional consecutive wins). Following any loss, the game returns to the base level award schedule.
