Abstract

See full text

The gaming systems according to the invention include hardware and software systems that allow a large arena of participants to interactively play a game of chance or skill. Generally, the invention can be understood game servers that generate page signals, such as HTML pages, that are representative of a hand being played, or dealt to a participant in a large arena game. For example, the game server can generate for each participant in a large arena game a page that is representative of a bingo card dealt to that participant. Each of the pages generated by the server includes a control mechanism, such as a check box or radio button, that allows the server to collect information from the participant to determine the moves being played by that participant. The gamer server collects from each participant the moves being played by the participant and as a function of the moves played and the hand dealt, the game server generates a new page that shows the progression of the participant through the game.
