Abstract

A multiplay gaming ticket, such as a pull-tab ticket (10) or 'instant winner' lottery ticket, and a coordinating validation system. In its preferred form, the pull-tab ticket has multiple groups or plays (26) of indicia (22) which each create an independent opportunity to win. To deter fraud, a validation code (24) is provided which uniquely identifies the pull-tab ticket (10) and is not merely a representation of the indicia (22). The pull-tab ticket (10) is validated by a combination of validator machine (30) and a host computer (100). The validator machine reads the validation code and relays it to the host computer to check for legitimacy (i.e., proper form and availability) and to correlate it to a stored record of gaming indicia (22). If approved, the host computer sends its record of gaming indicia back to the validator machine for display on monitor (50) and pay-out, as appropriate.
