The present invention includes an interactive keno game method that
comprises receiving at least one player selected symbol from a player
during a game session. The at least one player selected symbol is drawn
from a set of game symbols. The method then proceeds to receive a
condition from the player that identifies the player credits applied for
each chargeable action. The condition describes the number of credits that
are to be played during each chargeable action. Each chargeable action
includes the picking of at least one game selected symbol from the set of
game symbols. During a game session the chargeable actions are performed
more than once. Additionally, if there is a match between the at least one
game selected symbol and the at least one player selected symbol the game
session is paused. Furthermore, a prize may be awarded to the player when
the at least one player selected symbol matches the at least one game
selected symbol. During the game session, the player is provided with
various opportunities to terminate the game session wherein the game
session outcome is achieved at least in part by the player's skill.
Additionally, the interactive keno game may be terminated because the game
rules require ending the game session or the player has insufficient
credits to continue the game session.
