ABSTRACT:
A gain determination method and a gaming apparatus therefor are described herein. The gain determination method is intended to create an interaction between the players of games of chance and money. To achieve this, the gain determination method of the present invention is based on the principle that the number of players that win the game determines the gain of each player. An embodiment of the apparatus includes four gaming stations that are linked to a controller. If the number of players is sufficient and if the controller detects that more than one player wins the game, the gain of each winning player is multiplied by a variable that increases with the number of winning players.
