Description of the Related Art Various gaming systems have been developed to provide in-revenue and out-of-revenue gaming machines and systems. Most of those systems are either dedicated to in-revenue operation or out-of-revenue operation. An example of in-revenue operation is where play at a gaming machine or system is initiated with a money (or equivalent) wager by a player. An example of out-of-revenue operation is where game play at a gaming machine or system does not require a wager (e.g. Tournament or free play). There continues to be a need for innovative methods and gaming systems which provide convertibility between in-revenue and out-of-revenue gaming operation. There is also a need for innovative methods and systems for presenting tournament games in different ways to generate player interest and excitement.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present invention, a convertible in-revenue and out-of-revenue gaming system includes a server connected to automatically convert operating modes and control in-revenue and out-of-revenue operations of one or more banks of gaming machines. Each gaming machine may include a video camera connected to capture a live video feed during tournament or competition play. During tournament or competition operating mode, each gaming machine may be operable to display a game presentation simultaneously with a player dashboard. The player dashboard includes display areas for presenting the live streaming video, the player score, the player position, and the time remaining.

These and other advantages and features of the invention will be apparent from the following description of illustrative embodiments, considered along with the accompanying drawings.
