Abstract/Abridgement
An instant online lottery game unit to offer an
instant online lottery game to a player
comprises a price selection input that receives
a selection of an instant online lottery ticket
price at which an instant online lottery ticket is
to be purchased; a communication controller
that receives an instant online lottery number
and a plurality of game-play combinations from
a server and an instant online lottery processor
configured to compare the instant online lottery
number with each game-play combination in
the plurality of game-play combinations after
the instant online lottery number and the
plurality of game-play combinations is received
from the server and before the player is
provided with the instant online lottery number
and the plurality of game-play combinations.
The instant online lottery ticket price is selected
from a plurality of instant online lottery ticket
prices. Each of the instant online lottery ticket
prices corresponds to a distinct known
percentage of a progressive jackpot which
increases in size based on a portion of ticket
sales revenue and that can be won with one of
a plurality of game-play combinations.
The instant online lottery number is generated
by a first random number generator at the
server. The plurality of game-play
combinations are generated by a second
random number generator at the server. The
instant online lottery number and the plurality of
game-play combinations are provided to the
player at the time of purchase of the instant
online lottery ticket.
The instant online lottery processor calculates a
distribution of the progressive jackpot to the
player based upon the distinct known
percentage associated with the instant online
lottery ticket price selected by the player if the
instant online lottery number matches in full
anyone of the plurality of game-play
combinations.
