Abstract:
1. A gaming machine comprising: a display to display a game result; a betting board that has a plurality of bet regions corresponding to a plurality of types of the game results, and allows betting different bet amounts on a plurality of the bet regions in one game; an input device to receive a designation of a plurality of locations of the plurality of bet regions on the betting board, and allow a bet amount related to the plurality of bet regions thus designated to be input at a different bet amount for each of the bet regions thus designated; a memory to store each of the bet amounts on the plurality of bet regions designated by way of the input device; a raise switch to raise a bet amount previously bet on each of the plurality of bet regions at a predetermined multiple; a timer to measure a bet time in which the input device and the raise switch can be operated; and a controller to: (a) set a bet time according to a start of a game, and measure the bet time in the timer; (b) designate two or more bet regions from among the plurality of bet regions on the betting board, and receive input of a bet amount on each of the two or more bet regions by way of an operation of the input device; (c) associate the bet amount input by way of the input device respectively with the two or more bet regions designated, and store thereof in the memory; (d) convert all of the bet amounts associated with the two or more bet regions stored in the memory to a predetermined multiple simultaneously in response to an input of the raise switch; (e) end the bet time in response to a time measured by the timer having passed a time set in advance, and reject a bet input by way of the input device and an input of the raise processing by way of the raise switch; and (f) display a game result on the display after the bet time has ended, wherein the plurality of bet regions include a plurality of first bet regions, a plurality of second bet regions, and a plurality of third bet regions, each of the first bet regions corresponds to one numeral, each of the second bet regions corresponds to two numerals, and each of the third bet region corresponds to four numerals, and when the chip is moved to a certain position that is different from positions of the plurality of bet regions in (b), the controller moves the chip from the certain position to a position that is the closest to the certain position among the positions of the plurality of bet regions; and wherein in (b), each of the at least one bet region is designated by a chip corresponding to the bet amount which is moved by way of the operation, and when each of the two or more bet regions is designated in (b), the controller displays the chip on the designated bet region and displays on the chip a payout rate corresponding to the designated bet region.
