Abstract

Systems and methods for conducting multiple remote wagering games in a live table game system or similar system wherein the gaming symbols which are randomly generated as a result of a live table game are used to resolve the live table game and simulate play and resolve wagering outcomes of one or more remote wagering games which differ from the live table game.

First claim

The invention is claimed as follows:

1. A gaming terminal comprising:
a display device;
a processor; and
a memory device which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
receive data associated with a play of a first game occurring at a gaming table, wherein an outcome of the first game is based on a randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table, and any award associated with the determined outcome of the first game is based on a first paytable associated with the first game, and
for a play of a second game:
determine an outcome of the second game, said outcome being based on the randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table,
cause the display device to display the determined outcome of the second game,
determine any award associated with the determined outcome of the second game, said determination being based on a second paytable associated with the second game, said second paytable being different than the first paytable, and
cause the display device to display any determined award associated with the determined outcome of the second game.

2. The gaming terminal of claim 1 , wherein the play of the first game is associated with at least one of: a first wager amount, a first minimum wager amount, a first maximum wager amount, a first side bet amount, a first progressive award amount, and a first bonus award amount.

3. The gaming terminal of claim 2 , wherein the play of the second game is associated with at least one of: a second, different wager amount, a second, different minimum wager amount, a second, different maximum wager amount, a second, different side bet amount, a second, different progressive award amount, and a second, different bonus award amount.

4. The gaming terminal of claim 1 , wherein when executed by the processor, the plurality of instructions cause the processor to cause the display device to display a simulation of the randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table.

5. The gaming terminal of claim 1 , wherein the outcome of the first game is based on a plurality of randomly determined game components associated with the gaming table, the outcome of the second game is based on at least one of the randomly determined game components associated with the gaming table.

6. The gaming terminal of claim 1 , wherein the display device comprises a display device of a portable electronic device.

7. The gaming terminal of claim 1 , wherein the randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table comprises a physical game component selected from the group consisting of: a playing card, a roulette ball, a chip, and a die.

8. A gaming terminal comprising:
a display device;
a processor; and
a memory device which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
receive data associated with a play of a first game occurring at a gaming table, wherein an outcome of the first game is based on a first randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table, and
for a play of a second game:
determine an outcome of the second game, said outcome being based on a second randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table, wherein the outcome of the first game is not based on the second randomly determined game outcome associated with the gaming table,
cause the display device to display the determined outcome of the second game,
determine any award associated with the determined outcome of the second game, and
cause the display device to display any determined award associated with the determined outcome of the second game.

9. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein the outcome of the second game is based on the first randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table.

10. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein the outcome of the first game is based on a plurality of first randomly determined game components associated with the gaming table and the outcome of the second game is based on a plurality of second randomly determined game components associated with the gaming table.

11. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein the play of the first game is associated with at least one of: a first paytable, a first wager amount, a first minimum wager amount, a first maximum wager amount, a first side bet amount, a first progressive award amount, and a first bonus award amount.

12. The gaming terminal of claim 11 , wherein the play of the second game is associated with at least one of: a second, different paytable, a second, different wager amount, a second, different minimum wager amount, a second, different maximum wager amount, a second, different side bet amount, a second, different progressive award amount, and a second, different bonus award amount.

13. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein when executed by the processor, the plurality of instructions cause the processor to cause the display device to display a simulation of the second randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table.

14. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein the display device comprises a display device of a portable electronic device.

15. The gaming terminal of claim 8 , wherein at least one of the first randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table and the second randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table comprises a physical game component selected from the group consisting of: a playing card, a roulette ball, a chip, and a die.

16. A method of operating a gaming terminal, said method comprising:
receiving data associated with a play of a first game occurring at a gaming table, wherein an outcome of the first game is based on a randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table, and any award associated with the determined outcome of the first game is based on a first paytable associated with the first game, and
for a play of a second game:
determining, by a processor, an outcome of the second game, said outcome being based on the randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table,
causing a display device to display the determined outcome of the second game,
determining, by the processor, any award associated with the determined outcome of the second game, said determination being based on a second paytable associated with the second game, said second paytable being different than the first paytable, and
causing the display device to display any determined award associated with the determined outcome of the second game.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the play of the first game is associated with at least one of: a first wager amount, a first minimum wager amount, a first maximum wager amount, a first side bet amount, a first progressive award amount, and a first bonus award amount.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the play of the second game is associated with at least one of: a second, different wager amount, a second, different minimum wager amount, a second, different maximum wager amount, a second, different side bet amount, a second, different progressive award amount, and a second, different bonus award amount.

19. The method of claim 16 , further comprising causing the display device to display a simulation of the randomly determined game component associated with the gaming table.

20. The method of claim 16 , wherein the outcome of the first game is based on a plurality o
