Participating in a game of chance, such as KENO, played remotely away from the site where the winning numbers are drawn. Each player can mark his predicted winning number combination on a sheet that is inserted into a facsimile machine remote from the game site; simultaneously and automatically charging the cost of playing participation to the player's telephone bill. Information is transmitted over the phone line to a second facsimile machine at the game site, where the information may be computerized and compared with the winning numbers drawn by the game operators. The number-drawing process may be televised, such that players located remote from the game site will learn immediately whether or not they have become winners.
