SKILL CONFIRMATION INTERLEAVED WAGERING SYSTEM

1 . An electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers, comprising:

an interactive controller constructed to:

generate a user interface of a wagering application;

generate a user interface of an interactive application;

combine the user interface of the wagering application and the user interface of the interactive application into a combined user interface displayed to a user;

detect user interactions with the user interface and communicate the user interaction data to a process controller;

receive from the process controller a wager outcome; and

display to the user using the wagering user interface the wager outcome; and

a process controller operatively connecting the interactive controller to a wager server, wherein the process controller is constructed to:

receive from the interactive controller, the user interaction data;

detect a wagering event from the user interaction data;

generate application telemetry data;

execute a simulation of the interactive application using as an input the user interaction data;

generate simulated application telemetry data;

compare the simulated application telemetry data and the application telemetry data;

authenticate the application telemetry data based on the comparison;

communicate, to the wager server, an authorization to generate a wager outcome; and

communicate the wager outcome to the interactive controller.

2 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 1 , wherein the process controller incudes a decision engine having wager logic and application logic.

3 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 3 , wherein the process controller further includes an interactive application simulator operatively connected to the decision engine.

4 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 1 , wherein the interactive controller uses user interaction data to determine the user's skill based on a skill-based proposition presented by the skill-based interactive application

5 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 4 , wherein the application telemetry data includes the determination made by the interactive controller of the user's skill in accordance with the skill-based proposition.

6 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 1 , wherein the interactive controller uses user interaction data to determine the user's skill based on a set of skill-based propositions presented by the skill-based interactive application

7 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 6 , wherein the application telemetry data includes the determination made by the interactive controller of the user's skill in accordance with the set of skill-based propositions.

8 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 1 , wherein the interactive controller, the process controller, and the wager server are constructed from the same device.

9 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 1 , further comprising:

an enclosure constructed to mount:

a user input device operatively connected to the interactive controller;

a user output device operatively connected to the interactive controller;

a credit input device operatively connected to the wager server; and

a credit output device operatively connected to the wager server.

10 . The electronic gaming machine for authenticating skill interleaved wagers of claim 9 , further comprising a random number generator, wherein the wager server is further constructed to:

communicate with the credit input device to receive a credit input, the credit input for wagering to determine the wager outcome;

generate the wager outcome based on a random result generated by the random number generator; and

update a credit meter based on the wager outcome.
