Abstract

A gaming machine comprises a controller, a first display and a second display. The controller is operable to (a) execute a poker game as a base game, and (b) execute the base game to be played subsequently as a high-probability game with a raised winning probability if the predetermined combination is a specific combination. The first display is controlled by the controller for displaying images related to the base game. The second display is controlled by the controller and provided independently from the first display. The controller is further operable to display images related to the high-probability game on at least one of the first and second displays.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A gaming machine for playing with plural kinds of cards, comprising:
 a controller operable to:
 (a) execute a base game, in which some cards selected by a player among initially dealt cards can be replaced with other cards and a payout is awarded if a predetermined combination is created by the finally dealt cards, and 
 (b) execute the base game to be played subsequently as a high-probability game with a raised winning probability if the predetermined combination is a specific combination; 
   a first display controlled by the controller for displaying images related to the base game; and   a second display controlled by the controller and provided independently from the first display,   wherein the controller is further operable to display images related to the high-probability game on at least one of the first and second displays.   
   
   
       2 . The gaming machine according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the controller is operable to select one of the first and second displays for displaying the images related to the high-probability game thereon.   
   
   
       3 . The gaming machine according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the controller is operable to display the images related to the high-probability game on both the first and second displays.   
   
   
       4 . A gaming machine for playing with plural kinds of cards, comprising:
 a controller operable to:
 (a) execute a base game, in which some cards selected by a player among initially dealt cards can be replaced with other cards and a payout is awarded if a predetermined combination is created by the finally dealt cards, and 
 (b) execute the base game to be played subsequently as a high-probability game with a raised winning probability if the predetermined combination is a specific combination; 
   a first display controlled by the controller for displaying images related to the base game; and   a second display controlled by the controller and provided independently from the first display,   wherein the controller is further operable to select one of the first and second displays for displaying images related to the high-probability game thereon.   
   
   
       5 . A gaming machine for playing with plural kinds of cards, comprising:
 a controller operable to:
 (a) execute a base game, in which some cards selected by a player among initially dealt cards can be replaced with other cards and a payout is awarded if a predetermined combination is created by the finally dealt cards, and 
 (b) execute the base game to be played subsequently as a high-probability game with a raised winning probability if the predetermined combination is a specific combination; 
   a first display controlled by the controller for displaying images related to the base game; and   a second display controlled by the controller and provided independently from the first display,   wherein the controller is further operable to display images related to the high-probability game on both the first and second displays.   
   
   
       6 . A control method of a gaming machine, which executes a game with plural kinds of cards and comprises a controller, a first display and a second display provided independently from the first display, wherein
 the controller is operable to:
 (a) execute a base game, in which some cards selected by a player among initially dealt cards can be replaced with other cards and a payout is awarded if a predetermined combination is created by the finally dealt cards, 
 (b) execute the base game to be played subsequently as a high-probability game with a raised winning probability if the predetermined combination is a specific combination, 
 (c) display images related to the base game on the first display, and 
 (d) display images related to the high-probability game on at least one of the first and second displays. 
   
   
   
       7 . The control method of a gaming machine according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the controller is operable to select one of the first and second displays for displaying the images related to the high-probability game thereon.   
   
   
       8 . The control method of a gaming machine according to  claim 6 , wherein
