GAMING DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR USE WITH CAPPED AWARDS

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention set forth systems, apparatuses and methods for enhancing game play of gaming devices with capped awards. Accordingly, a gaming device with capped awards is configured to enhance game play by minimizing or eliminating perceived lost value when an award is capped. To minimizing or eliminate perceived lost value when an award is capped, a remainder amount over a capped amount for an award can be used to modify an aspect of game play in future games played on the gaming device. In conjunction with using the remainder, or alternatively, a point system may be implemented to present awards in points and then convert the points to credits provided to players, where the conversion does not necessitate removing credits that appear to be won due to the cap.
