Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for movement of hand counts between gaming devices. A gaming device can generate a plurality of outcomes of a wagering game. The gaming device can increment a hand count value for each of the plurality of outcomes. The gaming device can decrease the hand count value based on a payout of the wagering game and the multiple of the hand count value. The gaming device can print a ticket for the hand count value including an identifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for movement of hand counts to a gaming device. A gaming device can process a request to add credits to a current credits value of a wagering game. The gaming device can generate one or more outcomes of the wagering game. The gaming device can increment the hand count value based on a count of the outcomes of the wagering game generated. The gaming device can determine that the current credits value exceeds a predetermined multiple of the hand count value. The gaming device can transfer an amount of hand count credit to the wagering game by adding the amount of hand count credit to the hand count value. The gaming device can perform a payout of the wagering game comprising decreasing the hand count value based on the payout value and the predetermined multiple of the hand count value.

Abstract: A system and method for providing progressive awards can include a computing device in communication with a memory. The computing device can generate outcomes for a wagering game using a bet amount. The outcome can include one or more indicia. The computing device can update a progressive value using the bet amount and determine if a progressive threshold is satisfied based on an accrued hand count. In response to the progressive threshold being satisfied, the computing device can provide an award based on the progressive value.

Abstract: Methods for treating a substrate are disclosed. The substrate is deoxidized and then immersed in an electrodepositable pretreatment composition comprising a lanthanide series element and/or a Group IIIB metal, an oxidizing agent, and a metal-complexing agent to deposit a coating from the electrodepositable pretreatment composition onto a surface of the substrate. Optionally, the electrodepositable pretreatment composition may comprise a surfactant. A coating from a spontaneously depositable pretreatment composition comprising a Group IIIB and/or Group IVB metal may be deposited on the substrate surface prior to electrodepositing a coating from the electrodepositable pretreatment composition. Following electrodeposition of the electrodepositable pretreatment composition, the substrate optionally may be contacted with a sealing composition comprising phosphate and a Group IIIB and/or IVB metal. Substrates treated according to the methods also are disclosed.
