Description

Technical field

The invention relates to the field of collective mass entertainment, technical means of providing betting activities, and in particular to methods of conducting gambling, betting.

State of the art

There are known games during which a bet is made, under the conditions of which the possibility of a certain event lies. Events are usually associated with sports or other competitions.

The prior art method of conducting such a game (invention RU2138311, publication date 09/27/1999). In this method, as a competition for which a bet is made, competition is used in space for specially launched spacecraft, preferably of the same type. Each participant in the game relies on a particular spacecraft. The game organizers during the competition determine the temporal and / or speed and / or coordinate and / or accuracy characteristics of each spacecraft relative to the selected space object. The indicated characteristics of all spacecraft are compared among themselves (they determine the primacy of a spacecraft according to a certain selected criterion) and, taking into account this comparison, the winnings are distributed among the participants in the game.

The disadvantage of this technical solution is the need to organize a special competition in space, which is a complex and resource-intensive process. In addition, spacecraft have certain technical characteristics that may be known to the participants of the game, which leads to a decrease in the level of unpredictability of the game.

The closest technical solution (prototype) is the method of playing a game with the reception of betting bets (patent RU2622624, published on June 16, 2017). In this method, as a result of an event for betting, a numerical sequence is used, obtained by measuring the parameters of the selected 30 aircraft in flight and sorted by flight number. Moreover, as the parameters of each aircraft, its coordinates and / or speed are used.

A disadvantage of the known technical solution is the low level of unpredictability of the event and, therefore, the ability to predict the result, which leads to an increase in the probability of predictability of the result (rate parameter). The reasons for this are as follows. Each aircraft on a particular flight has certain technical characteristics and a predetermined flight route, which can be known to the participants of the game or calculated using technical means.

The technical result of the proposed method of conducting gambling with bets in relation to a sports game is to increase the stability of its result in relation to the deliberate actions of interested parties aimed at obtaining an unfair advantage in gambling.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that in the method of conducting gambling with bets in relation to a sports game, in which a game zone and at least one control boundary are set in relation to a sports game, identification of game subjects and a game object within the game zone is provided , save the list of actions for calculating the size of the winnings and their sequence, provide reception and storage of information on bets, including the data of the participant who made the bet, the size of the bet, bet e condition, containing at least information about the value of the playing time, spatial coordinates or the speed of the game item or at least one of the game subjects, provide measurement and storage of game data in the form of spatial coordinates, speed of the game item and / or at least one of the game subjects, as well as game time corresponding to the indicated measurements, compare information about each bet condition with the corresponding game data type for the match ayuschego values playing time, provide storage of information about the rates for which said comparison during set coincidence of compared values, and calculating the payoff for their size using said list of actions and sequence.

Brief Description of the Drawings

The invention is illustrated by drawings (FIGS. 1-3), where in FIG. 1 shows a game subject near a control border at the moment of crossing the control border with a game object, FIG. 2 shows a game object at a certain point in the game zone having a certain speed, in FIG. 3 shows a game subject at a certain point in the game zone, having a certain speed.

Disclosure of invention

In the drawings are indicated: control border 1, game subject 2, game subject 3, game zone 4.

The invention is realized during various sporting events (for example, football, hockey, tennis, table tennis, etc.) in the presence of the material support described below.

Usually, two teams participate in a sporting event, each of which has the same number of game subjects (players). In addition, each gaming entity has its own number by which it can be distinguished from others.

This invention contemplates sports in which game subjects interact primarily through a game object. A game object is an object, in appearance and characteristics strictly defined for each sport. For example, for soccer, the game item is a soccer ball, for hockey - the puck, etc. Hereinafter, the game subject and game subjects are collectively referred to as game objects.

The game zone is a platform in shape close to rectangular, on which the main game actions take place. This site has strictly defined sizes and layout for a specific sport. At least one control border is located in the playing area in the manner described by the rules of the sport (usually there are two control borders and they are located symmetrically on opposite edges of the playing area).

The control boundary is a part of a plane with certain dimensions, limited by material objects, for example, pillars and crossbars of the goal. When a game object crosses a control border in a certain direction, a game event is recorded and the game score is changed. For example, in the case of football and hockey, the goal line is the goal - a part of the plane enclosed between the side posts and the crossbar. Moreover, for the above example, a game event is recorded if the game object has crossed the control border from the side of the middle of the game zone.

The time report block is a device for recording game time (only during the game time game events are recorded). Usually, an electronic clock is used as a time reference unit. At the same time, the block of time counting is made with the ability to stop the countdown and resume it if necessary.

The unit for recognition and calculation of the spatial coordinates of objects is a set of devices designed to distinguish a game object and each of the game subjects from all objects in the game zone, as well as determine their spatial coordinates. For example, the GoalControl-4D system is known from the prior art (http://www.goalcontrol.de/en/products/goalcontrol-4d.html, accessed July 24, 2017) used to determine a goal in football. A description of the system is presented in the source http://www.mk.ru/sport/2014/06/16/kiborg-vam-sudya.html, accessed July 24, 2017. All twelve stadiums hosting the World Cup in Brazil were equipped with fourteen special high-speed cameras each. Seven cameras for each gate. Cameras are installed under the roof of the stadium, connected to a computer image processing system and send five hundred images per second to it. At the same time, cameras filter out all “unnecessary” objects (for example, players, referees) and see only the ball. They see it in a three-dimensional image, and as soon as the ball completely crosses the goal line, the system calculates this event (goal) and instantly sends a corresponding signal to the smart watch on the referee’s hand. Those. This system consists of fourteen cameras connected to a computer image processing system. The system monitors the movement of all objects, filters out game subjects, referees and other objects and determines the three coordinates of the position of the ball only on the field with a certain accuracy and the fact that the goal crosses the ball. In a particular case, the unit for recognizing and calculating the spatial coordinates of objects can consist of a processing unit (for example, a computer) and a minimum of three cameras that receive an image of the game zone and objects in it. At the same time, cameras can carry out both photo and video shooting, and the received information is recorded in a memory block for the possibility of its use in the future. The processing unit calculates the spatial coordinates from the images received by the cameras, after selecting a game object or game subject under the desired number. In addition, the computer can calculate the speed of a game object or a specific game subject, taking into account the data of the time unit.

To determine the result of the game, blocks of the score of game events are used (by the number of teams), a comparison block and a storage block of the game result. The game events account unit is a device for summing up productive game events for each team during the game time, i.e. crossing a certain control border with a game object in a certain direction. The comparison unit is configured to compare data from the game event account blocks for each team and send the result of the comparison to the game result storage unit. Thus, the storage block of the game result contains data on which team won (has the largest number of productive game events) and with what score.

The calculated spatial coordinates and speed of the game object and game subjects at a certain point in time, as well as the result of the game, are called rate parameters in the text below.

To determine winning bets, a betting information storage unit, comparison units and a winning betting information storage unit are used. The betting information storage unit is a device in which data containing information about the data of the person who made the bet, the amount of the bet, betting conditions (the expected result of the game or the characteristic of the game object and its value) is recorded. The comparison unit is a device that is configured to compare the wagering condition with the wagering parameter and send the result of the comparison to the storage unit of information about winning bets. In this case, each comparison unit compares only a homogeneous betting parameter and a betting condition, for example, the estimated (specified in the bet) speed of a particular game subject at a particular moment in time with the calculated speed of the same game subject at the same time or the estimated (specified in the bet) spatial the coordinates of the game object at a particular moment in time with the calculated spatial coordinates of the game object at the same time. Thus, the unit for storing information about winning bets contains information about the data of the person who made the winning bet, the amount of the bet. A winning bid is such a bet, the betting condition from which coincided with the bid parameter.

The implementation of the invention

In the case of using the above elements and means, the invention is implemented as follows.

Previously, before the event referred to in the bid condition, when the bet is placed on the predicted outcome of this event, or directly during the event itself, when the bet is placed on the occurrence of one or another forecasted situation during this event, information on bets is recorded - data of the person who made the bet , the wagering conditions on which he placed, the amount of the bet - in the storage unit for information on bets. During the game, the game time is counted using the time counter. Set the boundaries of the playing area in accordance with the sport in which the game is played, and enter information about their position into the recognition unit and calculate the spatial coordinates of the objects.

Form a list of actions for calculating the size of the winnings and their sequence. Determine the total winnings. In a particular case, the share of the winnings left by the organizer to cover the organizational costs of conducting gambling with bets in relation to a sports game is determined. The amount of the balance to be distributed between the winning bets is determined. Next, determine the interest rate on winnings for individual betting conditions (if necessary), for example, by the end result of the game or by the characteristics of the game object at a particular time or the amount of winnings for the bet. Then determine the dependence of the win on the size of the bet (if any) or a fixed amount of win at a fixed bet. This information is entered into the corresponding memory block for subsequent calculation of the winning size.

Further actions are chosen depending on which betting condition is used for comparison and when this comparison is carried out (during the game time or after the end of the game).

In the case when the result of the game (total score) is used as the betting condition and, accordingly, the bet parameter, and the comparison is carried out during the playing time, the following sequence of actions is performed. Previously (or during the game time) determine the coordinates of the control border related to each of at least two teams. The countdown of the game time begins, during the game time, video or photographing of the game objects within the boundaries of the game zone is performed. The game object is recognized among all game objects within the boundaries of the game zone and the spatial coordinates of the game object are calculated by video or photo shooting using the recognition unit and the calculation of the spatial coordinates of the objects. Then determine the fact of the effective intersection of a certain control border with a game object, for this, the coordinates of the game object and the coordinates of the control border, as well as the change in the coordinates of the game object over time are compared. To confirm the fact of a successful crossing of the control border, the game object must cross the plane of the control border without going beyond the control border. In the subsequent unit of time, after passing the intersection point, the coordinate of the game object must be fixed outside the game zone. In addition, for a game object, the coordinate in the direction indicated in the previous sentence should increase over time (consider a small period of time, which includes the moment of crossing the control border). Then, the result of the game event is calculated taking into account the connection of a certain control boundary with a specific team. Save all points scored by each team in different memory blocks. End the countdown of the game time at the moment when the amount of time stipulated by the rules for this game passes. After the end of the game, the number of points scored by each of the teams is compared and the result of the game (which team won and with which score) is saved in the game result storage unit. Then, the saved game result (the total score and the winning team) is compared with the saved game results from each bet and the bets are selected with the result in which the saved result matches. Such bets in which the betting condition (in this case, the result of the game indicated in a particular bet) coincides with the betting parameter (saved by the result of the game) are called winning in the text.

In the case when, as a staking condition and, accordingly, a staking parameter, situational data is used inside the main event, for example, the actual (established in fact) speed of a game object or game subject under a certain number at a certain point in the game time, and the comparison is carried out during the game time, perform the following sequence of actions. The countdown of the game time begins, during the game time, video or photographing of the game objects within the boundaries of the game zone is carried out. A game object or game subject is recognized under a certain number among all game objects within the boundaries of the game zone and the video object’s speed is calculated by video or photographing using the recognition unit and calculating the spatial coordinates of objects taking into account the data of the time frame. Then, the bet parameter (the calculated speed of the game object at a particular point in time) is compared with the bet condition (speed of the game object at the same specific moment in time) from each bet. Based on the results of the comparison, the bets are selected in which the wagering condition coincides, including taking into account the measurement error or another specified interval, with the wagering parameter. After that, information on winning bets is saved in the storage unit of information about winning bets - data of the person who made the bet, the amount of the bet. End the countdown of the game time at the moment when the amount of time stipulated by the rules for this game passes.

In the case when situational data inside the main event, for example, the estimated spatial coordinates of the game object or game subject under a certain number at a certain point in the game time, is used as the betting condition and, accordingly, the betting parameter, and the comparison is carried out during the game time, the following sequence of actions is performed . The countdown of the game time begins, during the game time, video or photographing of the game objects within the boundaries of the game zone is carried out. A game object or game subject is recognized under a certain number among all objects within the boundaries of the game zone and the spatial coordinates of the game object are calculated by video or photographing using the recognition and calculation of spatial coordinates. Then, the bet parameter (calculated spatial coordinates of the game object at a particular point in time) is compared with the bet condition (spatial coordinates of the game object at the same specific moment in time) from each bet. Based on the results of the comparison, bets are selected in which the wagering condition coincides, including taking into account the measurement error or another specified interval, with the wagering parameter; such bets are called winning bets hereinafter. After that, information on winning bets is stored in the storage unit for information on winning bets - data of the person who made the bet, the amount of the bet. End the countdown of the game time at the moment when the amount of time stipulated by the rules for this game passes.

For the cases indicated in the previous two paragraphs, during the playing time, only video or photographing of game objects within the boundaries of the game zone is possible (or other fixation of coordinates and speeds of objects). All other actions can be performed after the end of the countdown of the game time, if the data of the results of video or photo shooting during the game is stored in an additional memory block.

For all cases mentioned above, after the specified actions, in accordance with the saved list of actions for calculating the size of the win and their sequence, the winning amount for each winning bet is calculated.

For example, in case of a win of ten million rubles, thirty percent is left to the organizers to cover the organizational costs of conducting gambling with bets in relation to a sports game, i.e. three million rubles. The amount of the balance to be distributed between the winning bets is determined by subtracting from the total winning amount the amount left by the organizers, i.e. seven million rubles. Next, they distribute the balance at a given interest rate on wins according to individual betting conditions, for example, according to the final result of the game, fifty percent of the balance, i.e. three and a half million (from seven million), and according to the characteristics of the game object at a particular moment in time, fifty percent of the remainder, i.e. three and a half million (from seven million). After, depending on the size of the winnings, the final size of the winnings for a particular player is determined. For example, if you win five players with equal bet sizes according to the final result, the share of winnings for this betting condition is divided equally between the winning players, i.e. seven hundred thousand rubles each. If you win by the characteristics of the game object at a given moment in time, two players with a ratio of their bet sizes of two to three (for example, one thousand rubles and one thousand five hundred rubles), the win is divided from the same ratio, i.e. one player receives one million four hundred thousand rubles, and another player receives two million one hundred thousand rubles.

Thus, the implementation of the method of conducting gambling with bets in relation to a sports game, in which the spatial coordinates or speed of a particular game object at a certain point in time are used as a condition for the implementation of the method, provides an increase in the level of unpredictability of the event underlying the final result of the method, and reduces the likelihood of its prediction. This is ensured by the following factors. The choice as the conditions for the implementation of the operations of the data method of the corresponding sensors or measuring means providing information about the movement of the game object allows you to operate with practically unmanipulated parameters. For example, the possibility of giving a person a precisely defined speed or setting a precisely defined speed for a game object at a given point in the game time, taking into account random interaction with other game subjects, is an unlikely event. Also, a specific position in the playing area (i.e., spatial coordinates) at a given point in the playing time cannot be set exactly for the game object. Moreover, the definition of "can not" means the extremely low probability of such a situation, and not its absolute impossibility. This significantly increases the stability of the result of the operations of the method in relation to the deliberate actions of interested parties aimed at obtaining an unfair advantage in the game of chance, i.e. reduces the possibility of fulfilling the conditions of collusion of gaming entities between themselves or with participants who have made bets.
