ABSTRACT:
A gaming apparatus uses a group of distinctively colored marbles which are released to travel down an inclined path consisting of four mutually perpendicular segments. A series of deflecting pins are provided along the path for randomizing movement of the marbles free of any influence by the user. A series of steps and crowns are provided to prevent the marbles from being stopped by the pins. A slot is provided for accepting tokens or coins for placement of wagers with regard to the order in which the marbles will arrive at the finishing position. A mechanism is provided for identifying the sequence of finish and determining the outcome of the wagers. The movement of the marbles is at all times visible to the user to provide enjoyment and excitement.
