Palm Beach, FL – November 2, 2021 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – Artificial Intelligence (AI) has grown so quickly that it has become a common every-day tool that most of us use or benefit from… most times without even knowing it. It has infiltrated itself into more and more aspects of common life and activities. Now, it has found more new green pastures for it to expand into… the eSports and gaming industries. Gambling involves a lot of luck but also preparation. Bookmakers now benefit from real-time statistics about esports players, teams and events that inform betting odds and provide context to bettors. AI can process enormous amounts of data very quickly and make predictions accordingly. PandaScore’s AI platform, for example, collects 300 data points in League of Legends in half a second. The system continually learns based on history and incoming data to provide the most current breakdowns and predictions about who will win, lose, accomplish certain tasks, etc. A recent article in iGaming Business said that: “Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly integral role in the data-dependent esports vertical. From assisting in odds-setting to flagging suspect behavior, the technology’s uses are endless.” Active tech companies in the markets today include: Esports Technologies (NASDAQ: EBET), Super League Gaming (NASDAQ: SLGG), Elys Game Technology, Corp. (NASDAQ: ELYS), Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMBL), Skillz Inc. (NYSE: SKLZ).
iGaming Business continued: “By its digital nature, esports is more data-driven than traditional sports, which has created a need for advanced AI in the industry. IBM recently introduced Power Rankings with Watson, an AI-powered method of evaluating player and team performances in the Overwatch League. GRID continually analyses game play and shows viewers important information such as weapon load-outs, spells and where the last kill occurred… Beyond odds and predictions, AI can identify risky betting behaviours and illegal operations. Australia’s gambling operator, Tabcorp, for example, will reportedly boost its sports wagering operations with AI. The platform will apparently offer high-scale possibilities for predicting outcomes of NFL games and providing sports bettors with more elements to wager on.”
Esports Technologies (NASDAQ: EBET) – BREAKING NEWS – Esports Technologies Files Patent for Electronic Sports Betting Exchange System – Private Exchange System Looks to Provide Operators and High-Volume Bettors Improved Liquidity Matching and Pricing – Esports Technologies, a leading global provider of advanced esports wagering products and technologies, announced today that it has filed a new patent application covering various embodiments of a novel esports betting exchange system. The patent application describes a private betting exchange model that is configured to offer operators and high-volume bettors greater liquidity and improved pricing in an esports betting environment where large bet sizes do not impact market prices.
The systems and methods described in the patent application relate to users’ ability to subscribe to certain betting markets, such as esports games, teams, players, and the like, and be grouped into larger order blocks, which leads to better liquidity matching and enhanced pricing for electronic gaming platforms. The technology provides an exciting new way to participate in esports betting.
Bart Barden, COO, Esports Technologies, said, “The private exchange described in this patent application could substantially elevate the esports wagering experience for high-volume bettors and traders. Our team will continue to refine the technology so that we can deliver the most engaging esports betting exchange platform.”
This filing represents the latest addition to Esports Technologies’ portfolio of advanced wagering offerings. In August 2021, the company filed a provisional patent application for a technology that uses artificial intelligence to generate odds models for use in a betting algorithm for esports tournaments and various stages of a tournament. In June 2021, it filed a patent covering a proprietary live streaming technology that integrates sports and esports wagering across many of the most popular streaming platforms, including Twitch, YouTube, Facebook Gaming, and Hulu, among others.
