The Ring is important because it is the pivotal reason for the entire book: the re-emergence and ultimate destruction of the Ring.The way that Gollum came by the Ring is also important: because the Ring came to him by evil means, it corrupted Gollum that much easier. In the end, Gollum's complete corruption and lust for the Ring was what (ironically) saved Middle-Earth.

Bilbo and Gollum enter into a riddle game. While trying to think of a riddle, Bilbo is fiddling around in his pocket, and he happens to feel the ring he had just picked up. He didn't think much about picking it up, so, while, trying to come up with a riddle, he mumbled, "What do I have in my pocket?" In spite of this not being a proper riddle for the riddle game, Gollum accepted it and asked for and received 3 tries to answer it. He failed, then went back to get the ring from where he thought he'd hidden it (actually, it had fallen off without his noticing).
