Abstract
For a family of multidimensional gambler models we provide formulas for the winning probabilities (in terms of parameters of the system) and for the distribution of game duration (in terms of eigenvalues of underlying one-dimensional games). These formulas were known for one-dimensional case - initially proofs were purely analytical, later probabilistic construction has been given. Concerning the game duration, in many cases our approach yields sample-path constructions. We heavily exploit intertwining between (not necessary) stochastic matrices (for game duration results), a notion of Siegmund duality (for winning/ruin probabilities), and a notion of Kronecker products.
