Gaming apparatus and playing method thereof
View Patent ↗A gaming apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a roulette wheel including a plurality of pockets associated with respective numbers in advance; a memory for storing a plurality of control data for controlling the gaming apparatus so as to provide different weights on probabilities that a ball is housed in each of the pockets; and a controller, the controller controlling rotation of the roulette wheel and launching of the ball by referring to a single control data out of the control data, and selecting another control data different from the single control data, out of the plurality of control data, to set the selected control data as a reference target, when said ball is housed in a predetermined pocket belonging to a single group controlled so as to have a relatively high housing probability by said single control data.
1. A gaming apparatus comprising:
a roulette wheel including a plurality of pockets associated with respective numbers in advance;
a memory for storing a plurality of control data for controlling the gaming apparatus so as to provide a relatively high weight on a probability that a ball is housed in any of the pockets constituting a single group, said single group belonging to a plurality of groups each of which consists of a predetermined number of said plurality of pockets, and the plurality of control data associated with each of said groups; and
a controller,
said controller controlling rotation of said roulette wheel and launching of said ball by referring to a single control data out of said plurality of control data, and
selecting another control data different from said single control data, out of said plurality of control data, to set the selected control data as a reference target, when said ball is housed in a predetermined pocket belonging to a single group controlled so as to have a relatively high housing probability by said single control data.
2. A gaming apparatus comprising:
a roulette wheel including a plurality of pockets associated with respective numbers in advance;
a memory for storing a plurality of control data for controlling the gaming apparatus so as to provide a relatively high weight on a probability that a ball is housed in any of the pockets constituting a single group, said single group belonging to a plurality of groups each of which consists of a predetermined number of said plurality of pockets, and the plurality of control data associated with each of said groups; and
a controller,
said controller controlling rotation of said roulette wheel and launching of said ball by referring to a single control data out of said plurality of control data,
setting a number corresponding to said pocket housing the ball as a winning number,
determining whether or not a prize is allotted based on the selected winning number and a bet placed by a player, and
selecting another control data different from said single control data, out of said plurality of control data, to set the selected control data as a reference target, when said ball is housed in a predetermined pocket belonging to a single group controlled so as to have a relatively high housing probability by said single control data, and a prize is determined to be allotted.
3. A playing method of a gaming apparatus comprising the steps of:
controlling rotation of a roulette wheel and launching of a ball by referring to, a single control data, the single control data selected out of a plurality of control data for controlling the gaming apparatus so as to provide a relatively high weight on a probability that said ball is housed in any of the pockets constituting a single group, said single group belonging to a plurality of groups each of which consists of a predetermined number of pockets out of a plurality of pockets which are included in the roulette wheel and are associated with respective numbers in advance; and
selecting another control data different from said single control data, out of said plurality of control data, to set the selected control data as a reference target, when said ball is housed in a predetermined pocket belonging to a single group controlled so as to have a relatively high housing probability by said single control data.
4. A playing method of a gaming apparatus comprising the steps of:
controlling rotation of a roulette wheel and launching of a ball by referring to a single control data, the single control data selected out of a plurality of control data for controlling the gaming apparatus so as to provide a relatively high weight on a probability that said ball is housed in any of the pockets constituting a single group, said single group belonging to a plurality of groups each of which consists of a predetermined number of pockets out of a plurality of pockets which are included in said roulette wheel and are associated with respective numbers in advance; and
setting a number corresponding to said pocket housing the ball as a winning number,
determining whether or not a prize is allotted based on the selected winning number and a bet placed by a player, and
selecting another control data different from said single control data, out of said plurality of control data, to set the selected control data as a reference target, when said ball is housed in a predetermined pocket belonging to a single group controlled so as to have a relatively high housing probability by said single control data, and a prize is determined to be allotted.
