Abstract: Individual sports event activities are recorded along with metric results of individual or collective results of the activities. The data from these recordings and metrics are provided to a central gaming server. Individual players offer wagers of value to be used in competition against other individual or groups of players. The central gaming server compares the metrics of at least two individual players that have offered wagers of values and determines a winning individual player based on the comparison of metrics.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media are described herein for initiating a second round for a game. A round of the game can comprise: a) pseudo-randomly generating a set of game piece symbols, b) matching a game piece symbol to one or more symbols in the pseudo-random set of possible winning combinations of symbols, c) indicating to the user that the one or more symbols in the pseudo-random set of possible winning combinations of symbols have matched, and d) if all symbols in a possible winning combination of symbols are matched, awarding the user the corresponding payout value of the possible winning combination of symbols. A second round of the game can be offered; if accepted, at least one of the possible winning combinations of symbols with a lowest corresponding payout value that has not yet matched can be removed from the set of possible winning combinations of symbols.

Abstract: A wagering method includes display of random symbols in a grid array of rows and columns of frames displayed on a visual screen. The player receives a number of directable virtual projectiles. The player selects a trajectory for the virtual projectile that passes into the grid array. The processor moves the virtual projectile on the visual screen along the selected trajectory and eliminates symbols within penetrated frames. Each virtual projectile has a designated frame penetrating strength. Each moved virtual projectile passes into and through frames until the virtual projectile exhausts its frame penetrating strength, and eliminates symbols in each frame the virtual projectile penetrates. The processor accumulates all symbols eliminated in ordered arrays of like symbols or orders of symbols.

Abstract: A method and system host a modified game of baccarat, the modified game of baccarat comprising a player position hand and a banker position hand that are not in competition with each other in the modified game, the player position and the banker position receiving exactly two playing cards from two separate original randomized decks of 52 playing cards. The method includes detecting placement of an initial wager from one or more participants, the initial wager relating to the appearance in either or both of the player position hand and/or the banker position hand at the conclusion of initial delivery of the exactly two cards to the player position hand and the banker position hand; and initially resolving the wager on the modified game of baccarat according to a paytable with multiples against the wager.
