For example, a 2x bonus spin results in the wheel coming to rest in a section of the wheel with a 10 (10 to 1 odds). The original wager shall be paid at 20 to 1 odds.
(c) If upon completion of the bonus spin the wheel comes to rest on the 2x or 7x section of the wheel, the bonus spin round continues and the multipliers shall stack until the spin occurs with the wheel coming to rest in a section of the wheel with 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 or 40. For example, a 2x bonus spin results in the wheel coming to rest in the 7x section. The subsequent bonus spin results in the wheel coming to rest in a section of the wheel with a 10 (10 to 1 odds). The original wager shall be paid at 140 to 1 odds.
