       9 . The gaming machine according to  claim 8 , wherein the processor controls the second image display device to keep displaying the result of the first game after the second game is completed and until the predetermined condition is satisfied in a successive first game for performing a next second game.  
   
   
       10 . A gaming machine comprising: 
 a first image display device;    a second image display device; and    a processor that performs a first process for providing a player a first game by controlling the first image display device to display a progress of the first game,    wherein, when a result of the first game satisfies a predetermined condition, the processor performs a second process for providing the player a second game by controlling the first image display device to display a progress of the second game while controlling the second image display device to display the result of the first game,    wherein, when performing the second process, the processor controls the second image display device to keep displaying the result of the first game until the second game is completed, and    wherein, when performing the second process, the processor controls the second image display device to notify the player the predetermined condition satisfied in the first game while displaying the result of the first game.    
   
   
       11 . The gaming machine according to  claim 10 , wherein the processor controls the second image display device to keep displaying the result of the first game after the second game is completed and until the predetermined condition is satisfied in a successive first game for performing a next second game.  
   
   
       12 . A method for providing a game to a player with a gaming machine provided with a first image display device and a second image display device, the method comprising: 
 performing a first process for providing the player a first game by controlling the first image display device to display a progress of the first game; and    performing, when a result of the first game satisfies a predetermined condition, a second process for providing a second game by controlling the first image display device to display a progress of the second game while controlling the second image display device to display the result of the first game.    
   
   
       13 . The method according to  claim 12 , wherein the first image display device is provided with a plurality of variable display sections, in which a plurality of symbols are variably displayed, and 
 wherein the fist process comprises:
