First Claim
1. A method of operating a gaming system, said method comprising:
- (a) causing at least one processor to execute a plurality of instructions stored in at least one memory device to operate with at least one input device to receive a streak wager from a player, the streak wager being associated with a multiple streak game including a multiple streak having a multiple streak continuation condition and an additional streak having an additional streak continuation condition, wherein;
(i) the multiple streak continuation condition is satisfied when one of a plurality of different outcomes of a wagering game satisfies each of a first quantity of conditions, the first quantity of conditions being at least two; and
(ii) the additional streak continuation condition is satisfied when one of the plurality of different outcomes of the wagering game satisfies each of a second quantity of conditions, the second quantity of conditions being at least one; and
(b) causing the at least one processor to execute the plurality of instructions to, for at least one play of the wagering game;
(i) determine an outcome of said play of the wagering game, said outcome being one of the different outcomes;
(ii) if the multiple streak is set as an active streak;
(A) if said outcome satisfies the multiple streak continuation condition, operate with at least one display device to display a multiple streak award based on the streak wager, cause the multiple streak award to be provided to the player, and maintain the multiple streak as the active streak; and
(B) if said outcome does not satisfy the multiple streak continuation condition but satisfies the additional streak continuation condition, set the additional streak as the active streak; and
(iii) if the additional streak is set as the active streak, if said outcome satisfies the additional streak continuation condition, operate with the at least one display device to display an additional streak award based on the streak wager, cause the additional streak award to be provided to the player, and maintain the additional streak as the active streak.

Abstract
One embodiment provides a gaming system providing a multiple streak game associated with a base or primary wagering game. The multiple streak game includes a multiple streak having a multiple streak continuation condition and a single streak having a single streak continuation condition. The multiple streak is initially the active streak. If an outcome a play of the base or primary wagering game satisfies the multiple streak continuation condition, the multiple streak remains the active streak and the player may win an award. If the outcome does not satisfy the multiple streak continuation condition but satisfies the single streak continuation condition, the multiple streak ends, the at least one single streak is set as the active streak, and the player may win an award. If the outcome does not satisfy either the multiple streak continuation condition or the at least one single streak continuation condition, the multiple streak game ends.
