ABSTRACT:
A slot machine-like game-of-chance system and method that rewards players for winning combinations of symbols when at least one symbol appears within an area of the display selected by the player. A player may select a display domain such as one or more of the columns, and receive a reward if a first predetermined symbol appears within the display domain. The player can also be awarded if a second predetermined symbol also appears in the display. The player may also receive a first random bonus payout independent of the display domain selected by the player, and the opportunity to win a second bonus payout dependent upon a player choice made prior to receiving the first random bonus payout.
