Abstract

A method and apparatus that can be used by a casino to maintain a bonus round progresssive jackpot that can be earned during a bonus round. When a player plays a slot machine (100) and gains entry into a bonus round (102), the player then has the opportunity to win the bonus round progressive jackpot (106). The bonus round can involve player skill (210), and the lack of player skill can cause a contribution of a monetary amount to the bonus round progressive jackpot (1 10), (112) so that the player, or a successive player, has an opportunity to win the bonus round progressive jackpot (108).
