System and method for conducting casino style game utilizing a pair of spinning tops
A casino style system and method involving the use of a pair of spinning tops to generate random outcomes. A dealer's top and player's top are spun simultaneously before which players are able to place wagers on a series of colors (e.g., red, green, blue and yellow) and/or symbols (e.g., wild jokers) depicted on different facets of the tops and win awards responsive to random outcomes generated by said tops once toppling over. The tops are adapted to land such that a single facet is facing upwards identifying a color/symbol. Players may be able to place combo outcome wagers on specific combinations of random outcomes generated by the tops. A calibration/balance device is used to check and maintain the randomness of the tops.
