Wagering on intermediate points of a race event

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor of at least one computer in electronic communication with at least one other computer via an electronic communications network;
• and
• at least one memory having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the at least one processor, direct the at least one processor to:
• determine a first position of a first race participant at an intermediate point within a race event based on first race positioning information obtained by at least one measuring device;
• determine a second position of a second race participant at an intermediate point within the race event based on second race positioning information obtained by the at least one measuring device;
• determine a first simulated playing card based at least in part upon the determined first position;
• determine a second simulated playing card based at least in part upon the determined second position;
• determine an outcome of a game based at least in part upon the first and second simulated playing cards;
• and
• cause information about the outcome to be displayed at an interface of an electronic display device in electronic communication with the at least one processor.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon which are configured to, when executed by at least one processor of at least one computer in electronic communication with at least one other computer via an electronic communications network, direct the at least one processor to:

• determine a first position of a first race participant at an intermediate point within a race event based on first race positioning information obtained by at least one measuring device;
• determine a second position of a second race participant at an intermediate point within the race event based on second race positioning information obtained by the at least one measuring device;
• determine a first simulated playing card based at least in part upon the determined first position;
• determine a second simulated playing card based at least in part upon the determined second position;
• determine an outcome of a game based at least in part upon the first and second simulated playing cards;
• and
• cause information about the outcome to be displayed at an interface of an electronic display device in electronic communication with the at least one computer processor.
