Abstract
Systems and methods for event outcome selection that permit the loading of user profiles from other systems into an event outcome selection server. The event outcome selection server also receives events, each event having a plurality of outcomes, each outcome being associated with a payout associated with an implied probability of the occurrence of the outcome. The implied probabilities are converted and normalized before presentation to users via an interface that permits the user to select an outcome via a swiping gesture. An administrative interface permits privileged users to change outcome selections made by other users.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of event outcome selection comprising:
- electronically receiving, by a first computer system, at least one user profile via an interface configured to communicate with at least one other computer system, the user profile including at least one event outcome selection made by a user associated with the user profile;
- electronically receiving, by the first computer system, at least one event having a plurality of outcomes, each outcome associated with a payout associated with an implied probability of occurrence of the outcome;
- converting, by the first computer system, each implied probability of occurrence to a normalized value;
- and
- communicating, by the first computer system via the interface, a first graphical user interface for display to the user associated with the user profile, the first graphical user interface allowing the user to choose among a plurality of outcomes using a swiping gesture, each of the plurality of outcomes being associated with a converted normalized value.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions for event outcome selection that, when executed by a processor, are configured to:
- electronically receive, by a first computer system, at least one user profile via an interface configured to communicate with at least one other computer system, the user profile including at least one event outcome selection made by a user associated with the user profile;
- electronically receive, by the first computer system, at least one event having a plurality of outcomes, each outcome associated with a payout associated with an implied probability of occurrence of the outcome;
- convert, by the first computer system, each implied probability of occurrence to a normalized value;
- and
- communicate, by the first computer system via the interface, a first graphical user interface for display to the user associated with the user profile, the first graphical user interface allowing the user to choose among a plurality of outcomes using a swiping gesture, each of the plurality of outcomes being associated with a converted normalized value.
A computer system for event outcome selection comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive at least one event having a plurality of outcomes each outcome associated with a payout associated with an implied probability of occurrence of the outcome;
- and
- convert each implied probability of occurrence to a normalized value;
- and
- an interface coupled to the processor and operable to:
- electronically receive at least one user profile from at least one other computer system, the user profile including at least one event outcome selection made by a user associated with the user profile;
- and
- communicate a first graphical interface for display to the user associated with the user profile, the first graphical user interface allowing the user to choose among a plurality of outcomes using a swiping gesture, each of the plurality of outcomes being associated with a converted normalized value.
