Abstract: A method and system implement a wagering event on an underlying wagering event using a processor, memory, video display, player input controls and player value-in-value-out system. The method includes: a player position committing a wager on an underlying wagering event randomly distributing available into areas distributed along paylines; the processor distributing symbols along paylines; the symbols including at least two classes of collectible symbols: a first class of symbol having positive game content effects upon collection of a first predetermined number of the first symbols, or a second class of symbol having an elimination effect on the first class of symbols upon collection of a second predetermined number of the second symbols; and the processor enabling beneficial payout effects when the first predetermined number of the first symbol is reached and at least some collected first symbols eliminated upon collection of the second predetermined number of the second symbols.

Abstract: An electronic wagering event is performed on a gaming platform. The wagering event is based upon providing predetermined alignment of virtual symbols within a grid of frames in columns and rows. The processor provides a display of a random distribution of symbols within the frames of the grid on the video display The processor assigns a specific maximum number of symbol transfer steps that the player position may input from the player input controls at the player position. A visual display indicates how symbols are to be transferred within the frames of the grid on the video display to increase winning paylines. Upon exhaustion of the specific maximum number of symbol transfer steps that the player position may input, the processor determining correspondence of symbol distribution within the grids with respect to the paytable and resolves all wagers.

Abstract: A gaming event is executed on electronic gaming media. A wager is accepted by a processor and a random selection of both virtual symbols and moves is provided to a player by a display screen on a wagering device. The virtual symbols are randomly arranged on a grid having columns and rows. The player inputs commands to the processor to switch individual pairs of virtual symbols, one pair switched in each available move, until moves are exhausted. A final arrangement of virtual symbols on the grid is evaluated according to paylines and paytables to resolve the wager.

Abstract: A video poker game is executed on an electronic gaining machine in which positive affecting modifiers may be collected after predetermined minimum poker hand ranks are achieved. These may be collected, and applied at will by the player until a random negative event occurs that is not provided by the underlying video poker event.

Abstract: An electronic wagering event includes a series of consecutive gaming outcomes. In the sequence of outcomes, additional positive-acting symbols are collected, or positive-outcome “partial eliminators” are collected. A wagering player may implement the activity of the additional positive-acting symbols on any gaming event outcome, up until the partial eliminators are collected in sufficient numbers as to completely eliminate all (or some of) the positive-acting symbols. The electronic wagering event may be executed on an electronic gaming machine, table-top gaming machine, personal hand-held communication device, networked to gaming system, or on-line in communication with a web-based site.
