GAMES AND GAMING MACHINES HAVING OUTCOME NORMALIZATION FEATURE

摘要

Games and gaming machines are provided with an outcome normalization feature. In a method of presenting and playing a game, a game outcome is selected. If the outcome has been selected a minimum number of times since the last time the outcome was presented, that game outcome is used as the outcome of the game and is presented to the player. Otherwise, another game outcome is selected and the process is repeated. A counter or tally may be utilized to tracking the number of times a particular outcome has been selected, wherein the counter is incremented when the outcome is selected and is reset to a base value when the outcome is presented.
