Abstract

See full text

A method is proposed for processing a game participation request. The method comprises receiving, from a terminal, a participation request comprising a prize amount indication and based on the prize amount, determining a winning criterion for a random number to meet for the game participation request to yield a winning participation. The method further comprises receiving a random number from a number generator, determining whether the number meets the winning criterion and communicating a message that the participation is a winning participation if the random number meets the criterion. With a prize amount a priori unknown by a game server as the electronic gaming arrangement, it is advantageous to relate winning for to the specific prize amount. In order to remain profitable, it is preferred to attribute lower winning chances for higher prize amounts. This is enabled by relating the winning criterion to the prize amount communicated to the server.
