ABSTRACT:
A number matching game which can be employed in both a gaming device and in live gaming at a casino. The player picks one or more numbers from a number pool. The gaming device or house draws randomly at least one number from the pool. An award is provided to the player based on an amount of matches between the player selected number(s) and the game drawn number(s). In one embodiment, when the game displays a player picked number, the game also displays if the number results in a match. In another embodiment, one or more of either or both of the game drawn number and player selected number is weighted, for example by attaching different amounts of points to the numbers, wherein the award is based on the accumulated points of matched numbers. The above embodiments are combined and can have various outcomes, such as bonus outcomes.
