Abstract
Systems, apparatuses and methods for enhancing poker cards in subsequent poker games that are randomly incremented thereto, such as through advancements toward a threshold from a random initial value. One embodiment involves poker cards that are enhanced when reaching a random increment of poker games played relative to a triggering event, such as through expiration of a random count value. An initial count value or other tracking measure is established and displayed to the player, and when that count/tracking reaches a threshold, the card having the expired counter and/or cards in a vicinity of the card having the expired counter are enhanced, such as by converting those cards to Wild cards.
