According to an embodiment, a player of a game (e.g., video poker) wagers on a game in which a first set of cards represents a bonus hand having a high value (e.g., royal, straight). The player is also dealt a second set of cards.

摘要:
The present invention is directed generally to a method and apparatus for operating a gaming device having a flat rate play session costing a flat rate price. The flat rate play session spans multiple plays on the gaming device over a pre-established duration. The gaming device identifies price parameters and determines the flat rate price of playing the gaming device based on those price parameters. In one embodiment, identifying price parameters includes receiving player selected price parameters. In another embodiment, price parameters further incorporate operator selected price parameters. Should the player decide to pay the flat rate price, the player simply deposits the necessary funds into the gaming device or makes a credit account available for the gaming device to debit. Once the player initiates play, the gaming device tracks the duration remaining in the flat rate play session and stops the play when the given period has elapsed. During the play, payouts are made either directly to the player in the form of coins or indirectly in the form of credits to the players credit account.

A method and system is provided wherein an event experienced by a player is documented and the documentation of the event is stored (e.g., in association with an indication of the event). One example of an event experienced by a player is an outcome obtained by a player on a gaming device. In such an embodiment the documentation of the event may comprise an image of the player's reaction to the outcome and/or a still or video image of the outcome. In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention a player may subsequently access (e.g., purchase) an output of the documentation. In one embodiment an outcome of a prior game play that was documented is replayed. When the outcome of the prior game play is output, the outcome may be output in a manner that indicates to a viewer that the outcome is an outcome of a prior game play and not an outcome of a current game play.

According to some embodiments of a video poker game of the present invention, a gaming device and/or controller may be configured to (i) output a pay table, (ii) deal an intermediate outcome, (iii) receive a request from a player to retain/discard a number of identified cards of the intermediate outcome, (iv) replace the discarded cards to create a primary game outcome, (v) determine a payout amount associated with the primary game outcome based on the pay table, (vi) determine one or more strategy options based on the primary game outcome to determine a secondary game outcome (e.g., holding selected cards from any in the final poker hand) (vii) determine a payout amount associated with one or more secondary game outcomes, (viii) receive a player selection to receive a strategy option, (ix) deal cards to a selected strategy, (x) determine whether or not the player achieves a winning secondary game outcome, and if so, (xi) output the payout amount associated with the winning secondary game outcome. Thus, in some embodiments, a video poker game of the present invention may allow a player to retain one or more cards of a primary video poker game, select a strategy based on the primary game outcome, and receive a payout if the player achieves a winning game outcome in the secondary game.
