Abstract: In some embodiments, the present invention provides for a specifically programmed game operating computer system which, when executing the particular program code, is configured to operate in real-time a game based, at least in part, on: electronically receiving, in real-time, via a computer network, game entries data representing game entries for playing the game which has a common jackpot or shares the common jackpot with another game, where the common jackpot is configured to be calculated, in real-time during game entry submission, based on the game having a plurality of options within at least one of the following parameters: a price point per game entry, a payout level, a prize structure, a common jackpot contribution collection, and a prize distribution mechanism.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the present invention provides for a computer-implemented method for conducting a game, having at least steps of: electronically receiving, by at least one specifically programmed computer processor, in real-time, game entries data representing game entries of players to participate in the game; where each game entry identifies a single playing instance of the game, having a plurality of drawing events; electronically determining, by the processor, in real-time, based on a game mode, a plurality of winning results for the plurality of drawing events respectively; electronically determining, by the processor, in real-time, a winning game entry, having selections which win each drawing event of the plurality of drawing events; and electronically recording, by the processor, in real-time, a portion of a jackpot to be distributed to a particular player associated with the winning game entry.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the present invention provides for a specifically programmed game operating computer system for conducting a personalized game requiring each player to only select a single player-selected game piece to play a personalized instance of the game, where the exemplary system includes following components: a specialized computer machine, including: a non-transient memory, storing program code; and a processor configured to perform: requiring, in real-time, via a graphical interface, each player to select a single player-selected game piece out of a pool of game pieces; receiving, in real time, from each player: a selection of the single player-selected game piece and a player-defined size of a set of drawn game pieces; dynamically self-adjusting, in real time, a personalized self-adjusting payout table; and dynamically conducting at least one drawing where each drawn game piece is selected from a full pool of the pool of game pieces.

Abstract: A game combines the features of a lottery game and a race game. The actual race itself is conducted with each race participant being assigned specific numbers. Specific finishers of the race are determined (i.e., first through third place finishers) and the numbers associated with those finishers form a pool from which random numbers are drawn to determine a winner. Thus, the game combines the element of chance with the excitement of a race and permits the participants to exercise discretion in influencing the odds for ultimately winning the game. This combination of elements is such that the interest of the participants is maintained throughout the game from initial selection of the participants to the eventual running of the race and drawings of the winners.
