ABSTRACT:
A casino game of two-up or the like in which the total number of players is restricted and the players purchase their position in the ring by making a time-based payment, the house making no charge other than this payment. The game also includes a possibility that players bet against the house and the return to the players is based on betting that either two heads or two tails will be uppermost or, alternatively, not only on two heads and two tails being uppermost but also on mixed heads and tails; in either case the odds are adjusted so that over a period the house receives a predetermined percentage of the total amount wagered. The game has a ring within which the spinner stands and above which there is an obstruction which, when struck by the coins, causes them to spin.
