ABSTRACT:
A promotional system sponsored by retailers or others wishing to target the public uses a gaming machine and a method for operating that machine. An operator can program the machine so that within a predetermined number of operations or plays a predetermined number of wins occurs. Prizes associated with each of the wins can also be preprogrammed so that coupons are printed indicating the prize when a win occurs. Precise win/lose percentages are maintained by way of counters and a CPU programmed to switch status when a predetermined number of wins or losses has occurred, or when the operator desires to change the win/lose ratio and/or play cycle.
