Abstract: In contrast to slot-type gaming machines with their preset paylines designating predetermined array positions, the paylines of this novel wagering game are unknown until the indicia in the array have been selected. The randomly selected indicia determine the paylines, if any, in the array of indicia. Conditions may be imposed that limit the size and geometry of the paylines in this wagering game. Each indicium in the array, in one embodiment, may have an indicator for determining a subset of indicia in the array. In one embodiment, a winning game outcome occurs when the subset of indicia: 1) forms a payline, and 2) the combination of indicia designated by the payline meet predetermined requirements.

Abstract: A game having a first and a second plurality of indicia randomly selected from an indicia set. The first and second plurality of indicia are displayed to a player. The player may elect to receive either: (i) an array formed from the first plurality of indicia, or (ii) an array formed from a third plurality of indicia randomly selected from the first and second plurality of indicia. A winning game outcome occurs when a winning combination of indicia occurs in predetermined array positions.
