Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein concern methods and systems for providing wager-based gaming using an electronic gaming machine that mimics a table game. For example, a table game often makes use of physical objects in carrying out a wager-based game. The same physical objects can be represented in the electronic gaming machine. The physical objects have different potential outcomes when used in the wager-based game. The particular potential outcome yielded by the physical objects can be randomized by a randomizing action. In one embodiment, the physical objects can be implemented by one or more reels contained within the electronic gaming machine, and the reels can include reel-stops that represent the different possibilities that the physical objects can yield during a wager-based game.
