    摘要: An interactive wagering application is provided that allows users to place parimutuel wagers on future events. An interactive wagering system may enable the user to place a wager on the future event by providing multiple wagering pools. When a future event wagering pool is closed, final odds and payouts may be determined for that wagering pool and a new wagering pool, for the same future event, may be made available. The interactive wagering application may also monitor the user's activities to create a user profile. The interactive wagering application may use the user profile to find future race events that may be of interest to the user. The interactive wagering application may also provide the user with the ability to search for future races according to the future race date, race name, or any other suitable criteria.

    摘要: An interactive wagering application is provided that automatically prompts a user to record wagering events based on entered wagers. The recorded wagering events may be stored in a personal archive. The races stored in the personal archive may be listed according to information associated with the stored race, such as the track, race number, and date of the races. The interactive wagering application may also have access to a racing video archive and allow a user to search that archive for videos of prior races based on information associated with those races. The user may view the races from the search results or save the races in the user's personal archive. The wagering application may be implemented using platforms based on set-top boxes, personal computers, handheld computing devices, cellular telephones, or other suitable devices.

    摘要: An interactive wagering system is provided that promotes wagering to users at user equipment. The user equipment may be based on a set-top box and television, a personal computer, a cellular telephone with a display, or other such devices. Wagering may be promoted by notifying the user of an opportunity to place a wager on a given race. Wagering may also be promoted by providing the user with an on-screen opportunity to sign up for a wagering television channel or interactive wagering service. The on-screen promotions that are displayed to the user may be targeted based on the television programming that is being displayed or the user's interests. The user's activities may be monitored to collect information on the user's interests. If a particular race or the like is being discussed during a television program, the user may be provided with an opportunity to wager on that race. In this situation, racetrack, race, and horse selections may be made in advance for the user.
