Abstract

See full text

A gaming system includes circuitry and methods for performing a video poker game, wherein the video poker game has a pay table specifying winning combination of poker hands, and comprises a tableau having a plurality of tableau stacks, where each tableau stack has zero or more hidden cards and an exposed top card. In response to a wager, players select exposed cards to form winning combinations of poker hands specified in the pay table until no more winning combinations may be formed from the exposed cards. When exposed cards are played, they are removed from play, replaced with hidden cards from the tableau stacks or stock pile (when available), and a win meter is incremented accordingly. Primary payout amounts may be specified for each of the indicated winning combinations in the pay table, as well as secondary payout amounts for secondary conditions which may occur during game play, including the number of played cards, cards contained in the set of played cards, and exposure/removal of the cards within each tableau stack and/or the entirety of the tableau.
