Abstract
A gaming system comprising a symbol selector that selects, in a first play round, a first symbol to form a part of a first player hand including a plurality of symbols and a second symbol to form a part of a second player hand including a plurality of symbols, and in each subsequent play round, a replacement symbol for modifying one of the first player hand or second player hand. An outcome generator determines for each play round whether the game is completed or should proceed to a subsequent play round based on a ranking of one of the first player hand and the second player hand being higher than the other of the first player hand and the second player hand for at least two consecutive play rounds. The ranking of the first and second player hands is derived from the symbols of the hands.
