Abstract

This invention is a tournament gaming method and system (Figs.
1-3b) including a plurality of gaming terminals (10, 12) selectively inter-linkable together with a host terminal (16) so that current players of the terminals (10, 12) desiring to participate in group tournament play can be notified (24, 40) of the opportunity, and provided with the choice to play or not. If a current player chooses to play in the tournament, he so signifies, enters his entry fee (26, 42) into the terminal, and awaits start of the event. Upon start (28, 44) of the tournament by host terminal (16), the player will play (44) the tournament game to accumulate as many points as possible during a particular pre-announced tournament period (46). The host terminal (16) will continuously monitor the gaming terminals (10, 12) of all identified tournament participants (22, 38, 30, 46), record play status (30, 46), and control termination of the tournament gaming period (32, 48). It will also conduct an accounting of the results (30, 32, 46, 48), issue win results notification, and provide remote payout of game winnings.
