A gaming system is provided, including a jackpot server and a gaming server. The jackpot server accumulates respective contributions from gaming client devices into a progressive jackpot. The gaming server presents wagering games to a player on a gaming client device. The wagering games include a first wagering game having a progressive jackpot component, and a second wagering game not having a progressive jackpot component. The gaming server receives a jackpot token from the player, including a token identification associated with the player and a progressive jackpot identification correlating to a token progressive jackpot. A wager is received for the second wagering game, which is conducted such that the player participates in the token progressive jackpot. The gaming server transmits a message to the jackpot server, including a portion of the wager as a contribution to the token progressive jackpot and an outcome of the second wagering game.

A hookah, includes a cup assembly and a high frequency heating unit detachably connected to the cup assembly. The cup assembly includes a cup configured to accommodate a tobacco material. The high frequency heating unit includes a hollow handle and a magnetic induction coil disposed in the hollow handle. The hollow handle includes a through hole and the magnetic induction coil includes a central hole concentric with the through hole. The cup is disposed in the through hole of the hollow handle. When in use, an alternating current is introduced to the magnetic induction coil, and a magnetic induction effect is generated, so that the cup is heated and the heat is transferred to the tobacco material whereby the tobacco material is heated and smoke is produced.
