1. A gaming system for playing a wagering game, the gaming system comprising:
a cabinet configured to house electronic components operable for conducting the wagering game; at least one electronic input device coupled to the cabinet and configured to receive a physical input from a first player to initiate the wagering game and transform the physical input into an electronic data signal; at least one electronic display device coupled to the cabinet and operable to display aspects of the wagering game; at least one electronic random element generator configured to generate one or more random elements associated with play of the wagering game; at least one processor; and at least one memory device storing instructions which cause the at least one processor to operate with the at least one electronic display device and the at least one electronic input device to:
initiate the wagering game in response to the electronic data signal generated by the at least one electronic input device in response to the physical input from the first player;determine a partial outcome of the wagering game based, at least in part, on the one or more random elements generated by the at least one electronic random element generator;display, via the at least one electronic display device, the randomly determined partial outcome of the wagering game to the first player;in response to a triggering event in the wagering game, transmit the randomly determined partial outcome to at least one second player;randomly determine a first final outcome of the wagering game for the first player, the first final outcome including the partial outcome;randomly determine a second final outcome of the wagering game for the at least one second player, the second final outcome including the partial outcome; andif at least one of the first and second final outcomes is a winning outcome, award to the first player an award associated with the winning outcome.
