Abstract
Table games are enhanced by awarding chances at a bonus. The changes may be awarded based on one or more factors, for example amount wagered, time spent wagering, average wager, and/or skill level. Bonus related information may be provided to the players as a group, or individually, for example via one or more displays. A bonus pool may be formed from all or part of a separate bonus wager and/or part of a conventional wager on the outcome of a game being played at the gaming table.
