Abstract
Software running on a central server provides a virtual casino environment in which a plurality of virtual players continuously play various games such as poker, slots, black jack, etc. Each virtual player is given an initial gaming stake from which wagers are placed in the virtual gaming environment. A gaming patron participates by purchasing or 'sponsoring' a virtual player. Although the gaming patron may select a virtual player that is playing a particular type of game, the patron cannot otherwise control the play of the game. A gaming terminal is coupled to the central server at which the gaming patron can monitor the virtual player. Although the gaming patron is essentially a passive observer, the experience is very similar to that of the patron actually playing the game.
