Abstract

In use, the player would insert his or her player card at the EGM (10). The system checks to see if any multiplier currently applies to the machine and player. The multiplier is available as a token and can communicate to the guest via display on the EGM (10). The multiplier would be displayed using a conditional message feature of the display. Session points would accumulate at the 'multiplied' rate and are displayed as such on the EGM display. Alternately, an assurance message is available to be displayed frequently that shows the-current multiplier. When the player removes his or her card, the session is posted to the patron management system. Casino personal can then review the session detail by accession the history of the player at a workstation capable of querying the player tracking system (40). The session multiplier and points earned by the multiplier are listed within the record.
