Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et une unité centrale conçus pour le déroulement d'une procédure interactive de jeu selon laquelle des joueurs (1) qui disposent au moins d'un poste téléphonique (33) à touches peuvent prendre part à des jeux intéressés, c'est à dire 'jouer pour de l'argent', en utilisant un réseau de télécommunications conçu pour l'échange de données entre chaque joueur (1), au moins un régisseur de jeux habilité (4, 5) se trouvant dans au moins une officine (3), et une unité centrale spécifique ou centrale de jeux (6). Le joueur (1) communique son numéro de compte bancaire et son numéro d'autorisation ou son code confidentiel à la centrale de jeux (6). La centrale de jeu (6) établit des connexions avec l'une au moins des banques (3) et avec l'un au moins des régisseurs de jeux habilités (4, 5), envoie au joueur (1) un signal d'acceptation, après authentification du numéro d'autorisation ou du code confidentiel et vérification que la provision du compte est suffisante, et accompagne ce signal d'instructions adressées au joueur (1) lui expliquant les modalités d'utilisation de son poste téléphonique (32, 33) pour sélectionner les combinaisons de jeu voulues et éventuellement pour les corriger. La centrale de jeux (6) exécute également les procédures nécessaires et édite les reçus correspondant à la combinaison jouée et les adresses au joueur (1).
