其中补充的彩票选择的标记可用于购买的联机彩票游戏
相关申请
本发明要求2005年1月11日递交的美国临时申请No60/642,960、名称为“On-line Lottery Game In Which SupplementalLottery-selected indicia Are Available For Purchase(其中补充的彩票选择的标记可用于购买的联机彩票游戏)”的优先权，其说明书全部合并于此作为参考。
发明背景
1.技术领域
本发明一般涉及用于实现彩票游戏的***和方法，更具体说，涉及一种这样的彩票游戏，其中抽出补充标记，该标记仅对于其赌注大于为进行游戏所需要的最小数量的游戏者。
2.相关技术描述
许多政府和/或***组织发起称为彩票的游戏。典型的彩票游戏需要游戏者排列或者组合号码。这之后随着进行“抽奖”，其中彩票随机地选择编有号码的球的组合或排列。彩金基于在游戏者的选择和抽出的号码之间的匹配授予。抽出的号码被充分公开，数百万美元的累积彩金的彩票在全世界是普遍的。
对于政府来说彩票已经变成一种重要的收入来源，因为它们承担了许多用于教育和其他计划的财政负担。然而，随着政府更多依赖于彩票，增加销售，特别是为联机游戏，成为一种挑战，所谓联机游戏是其中把游戏者选择的标记通过终端向中心***发送，并随后和彩票选择的标记进行比较以决定游戏者是否赢得彩金。一种激励为联机抽取(drawing)游戏的彩票销售的方法是提供这样的游戏，其中游戏者有机会能够在进行游戏所需要的最小数量之外下另外的赌注。这进而要求以这样的方式构建该游戏的结构，使得对于游戏者而言很显然另外的赌注提供增加的价值。这样，对于彩票游戏有一种需要，其中下最小赌注的游戏者将经常具有这样的经验，即具体地看到如果他们下了更大的赌注的话，则他们该有更好的收益。
发明内容
简单说，本发明教授一种带有补充的游戏的彩票游戏。游戏者通过选择一组号码进行彩票游戏，并且也能够选择进行补充的游戏。用于彩票游戏的中奖号码连同一组补充号码抽取。游戏者可以通过匹配他选择的号码与用于***的中奖号码赢得该彩票游戏。如果游戏者曾经选择进行补充的游戏，则他也可以通过匹配他选择的号码与补充号码增加他的中奖机会。
在一个实施例中，本发明包括一种彩票游戏，其中游戏者从一组标记中选择多个标记，并选择有多少由彩票抽取的标记将为决定彩金的目的而与游戏者选择的标记比较，这里赌注的数量和彩金的数量取决于游戏者对于有多少彩票选择的标记要与游戏者选择的标记匹配的选择。
在一个实施例中，提供一种进行彩票游戏的方法。该方法包括下述步骤：接收从多个组中选择的第一多个游戏标记，接收补充选择的指示，接收从多个组中选择的第二多个游戏标记，接收从多个组中选择的一个补充的多个游戏标记，决定在第一多个游戏标记和第二多个游戏标记之间的第一匹配号码，和根据第一匹配号码和补充选择的指示决定总的匹配号码。
在另一个实施例中，提供一个用于进行彩票游戏的***。该***包括一个通信网络、至少一个与该通信网络通信的游戏机、和一个通过该通信网络与该至少一个游戏机通信的服务器。该服务器中包含有彩票游戏，并能够接收从多个组中选择的第一多个游戏标记，接收补充选择的指示，接收从多个组中选择的第二多个游戏标记，接收从多个组中选择的一个补充的多个游戏标记，决定在第一多个游戏标记和第二多个游戏标记之间的第一匹配号码，和根据第一匹配号码和补充选择的指示决定总的匹配号码。
附图说明
图1A、1B和1C是本发明的彩票游戏条的实施例。
图2A、2B和2C是本发明的彩票游戏票的实施例。
图3是本发明的彩票游戏彩金表的一个实施例。
图4例示支持本发明的网络结构的一个实施例。
图5是彩票服务器处理的一个实施例。
具体实施方式
在一个实施例中，本发明是一种落托数卡牌式游戏。亦即该游戏包括从多组标记中选择标记的游戏者，并通过操作彩票终端的零售商或者通过自助亭把他的选择连同赌注提交给彩票***。另外可选的方案是，游戏者可以请求彩票***像在快选选项(quick-pick option)中那样为他选择标记。今后假定游戏者已经选择了他自己的标记。在为游戏的销售停止后，进行抽取，其中彩票从相同的组中选择标记。游戏者可能基于在他们选择的标记和在抽取中选择的标记之间的匹配号码赢得彩金。
由彩票从每一组中选择的多个标记严格大于由游戏者从相应的组中选择的多个标记。彩票从每一组中以特定的顺序选择它的标记。为使游戏者选择的标记与由彩票选择的超过多个游戏者选择的标记的标记匹配，游戏者必须根据固定的进度表付另外的数量。因此游戏者的输入必须包括有多少彩票选择的标记要与游戏者选择的标记匹配的指示，连同需要的数量的赌注。
可以如下说明一个实施的例子。在购买时，游戏者为4组{1，2，...，15}、{16，17，...，30}、{31，32，...，45}、{46，47，...，60}中的每一组选择一个号码。这些组分别与颜色黄、红、蓝和绿相关。在抽取时彩票从这些组中的每一组中选择两个不同的号码，按顺序且不能置换。下面我们将称从每一组中选择的第一号码为“原”号码，称从每一组中选择的第二号码为“补充”号码。对于$1的基本赌注游戏者可以只与由彩票选择的原号码匹配他的号码。对于$3的赌注游戏者也可以使他的号码与他选择的两个补充号码以及原号码匹配，对于$5的赌注游戏者可以使他的号码与任何彩票选择的号码匹配，只要它们是原号码或者补充号码。游戏者可以通过填写图1A到1C所示的游戏条表示他的意图，这在下面解释。
图1A举例说明游戏条100。游戏条100的上面部分包括4列，相应于4组号码，从中游戏者和彩票将选择。这些列用它们相应的组的颜色标记。游戏者在每一列中确切标记一个号码，指示他的选择。他还标记他的赌注$1、$3、或$5的数量。
图1A的游戏条100显示游戏者已经选择号码11、23、44以及50，也投了$1的赌注。这是作为下$1的赌注所需的来自于游戏者的全部信息。图2A显示作为填写如图1A中所示游戏条100的结果可能被发给游戏者的票200。该票列出游戏者的选择，以及也给出游戏者没有资格将他的数字与任何补充号码匹配的指示。
图1B显示一个游戏者的游戏条150，该游戏者已经选择了号码11、23、44和50，并且也投了$3的赌注。因为$3的赌注授权给该游戏者使其匹配他的号码与基本号码以及补充号码中的两个，所以游戏者必须指示他想使用那些补充号码。因为将会有黄、红、蓝和绿四色中的每一种颜色的仅一个补充号码，所以对于游戏者选择这些颜色中的两种足够。在本例中游戏者已选择红色和蓝色。图2B显示作为填写如图1B中所示游戏条150的结果可能颁发给游戏者的票250。票250列出游戏者的选择，以及也给出游戏者符合条件将他的号码与红色和蓝色补充号码匹配的指示。
图1C显示一个游戏者的游戏条180，该游戏者已经选择了号码11、23、44和50，并且还投了$5的赌注。这是对投$5赌注的游戏者所需要的全部信息。图2C显示作为填写如图1C中所示游戏条180的结果可能颁发给游戏者的票280。该票列出游戏者的选择，以及也给出游戏者符合条件把他的号码与所有补充号码匹配的指示。
另一种可选择的方案是，游戏者可以向操作彩票终端的零售商口头表达或通过使用自助亭接口或连接于中心彩票服务器的计算机终端他的意愿。游戏者的号码选择，以及在$3的赌注的例子中补充的颜色的颜色选择，也可以由彩票终端使用本领域熟知的技术随机选择。
图3显示为本实施例的一个可能的彩金表300。我们将通过评估上面描述的3个博采输入中的每一个演示怎样使用彩金表300。假设彩票已经选择原号码11、29、40和54；和补充号码9、23、36和50。在本例中图2A的票将被计入一项匹配11。因此该票将赢得$1的彩金。
假定采取相同的彩票选择，图2B的票将被计入两项匹配11和23，因为游戏者所选择的号码可以与红色和蓝色补充号码以及原号码相匹配。因此，该票将赢得$10的彩金。
假定采取相同的彩票选择，图2C的票将被计入三项匹配11、23和50，因为游戏者所选择的号码可以与任意的补充号码以及原号码相匹配。因此，该票将赢得$50的彩金。
在另一个可选的实施例中，游戏者可以从单一大的号码集合中选择预先确定的号码。例如，游戏者可以从1-50的号码集合中选择(2、5、6、20、35)。彩票权威机构将从相同号码集合中选择一套中奖号码和一套补充号码。例如，中奖号码可以是(7、8、9、20、40)，补充号码可以是(2、11、21、35、49)。游戏者通过指示他想玩多少补充号码来进行补充游戏。如果游戏者玩一个补充号码，则他的五个号码将与五个中奖号码加上补充号码中的一个进行比较。在基于上述号码的例子中，游戏者匹配一个中奖号码20。如果游戏者玩一个补充号码，则该游戏者将匹配两个号码，(20、2)或(20、35)。如果游戏者玩两个补充号码，则他将匹配三个号码，(20、2、35)。
本发明能够在独立的游戏机器或游戏服务器上实施。独立的游戏设备可以包括显示单元、用于扫描包含游戏者的选择的游戏条的扫描单元(也称作游戏者输入设备)、用于发行票给游戏者的票发行单元。游戏设备具有带能够为游戏者执行快速选择的随机***的控制器。该控制器也接受游戏者的来自扫描设备的赌注，以及发行票给该游戏者。在发行票之后，控制器生成一套中奖号码和一套补充号码，并且如上述确定为游戏者的票的若干匹配。该游戏设备也可以连接于如图4中举例说明的游戏服务器。游戏设备402通过通信网络404连接于服务器406。在图4中举例说明的实施例中，每一个游戏设备从游戏者接收赌注和选择，传递打赌信息给服务器406，以及发行票给游戏者。服务器406接收游戏者的选择，并且基于由彩票权威机构所选择的号码来确定中奖者。
图5举例说明为游戏服务器处理的示例流程图500。游戏者可以通过选择一套号码在彩票游戏中投放赌注，并且他也可以指示他是否想通过参加补充的游戏来增加他的中奖的机会。游戏者可以在独立的彩票站或在通过通信网络连接于彩票服务器的计算机终端上进行彩票游戏。游戏者的赌注信息和游戏选择被彩票服务器接收(步骤502)，彩票服务器将记录所接收的信息(504)。
在预先确定的时间，彩票权威机构举行中奖号码的抽取。除抽取中奖号码外，彩票权威机构还抽取一套补充号码。另一种可选择的方案是，中奖号码和补充号码可以由随机***自动生成或由第三方手工抽取生成。中奖号码和补充号码二者均被提供给彩票服务器(步骤506)。另一种可选择的方案是，中奖号码和补充号码可以由彩票服务器或独立的彩票站随机生成。在中奖号码和补充号码确定后，彩票服务器确定在游戏者所选择的号码和中奖号码之间的匹配号码(步骤508)。彩票服务器也核查游戏者是否购买了补充游戏(步骤510)。如果游戏者已经选择玩补充游戏，则游戏者的号码与由彩票服务器接收到的补充号码进行比较(步骤512)。最后，彩票服务器确定为游戏者的票的全部匹配号码，并且如果全部匹配号码列于彩金表中则游戏者赢得彩金。
在图5的上下文中，本方法例如可以通过操作计算机运行一系列机器可读的指令而被实施。这些指令可以存贮在不同类型的信号承载或数据存储一级、二级或三级介质中。该介质例如可以包括RAM(未显示)，其可由无线网络的组件访问、或存驻在其内。不管是被包含在RAM、磁盘或其他二级存储介质中，这些指令可以被存储在各种机器可读的数据存储介质中，例如DASD存储器(例如传统“硬盘驱动器”或RAID阵列)、磁带、电子只读存储器(例如，ROM、EPROM、或EEPROM)、闪存卡、光学存储设备(例如，CD-ROM、WORM、DVD、数字光学带)、纸张“穿孔”卡、或其它适合的包括数字和模拟传输介质的数据存储介质。
虽然参考本发明的一个实施例对本发明进行了展示和描述，但本领域的技术人员将应理解，在不偏离在以下的权利要求中所阐明的本发明的精神和范围的情况下，可以进行各种形式和细节的改动。虽然图5中的方法以连续的步骤举例说明，但本领域的技术人员将应理解，不同的顺序也可以用来实施本发明。此外，虽然本发明的元件也许以单数进行了描述或阐述，除非明确陈述限于单数否则考虑多数。
