  • Publication number: 20220245996
    Abstract: Computerized electronic gaming techniques may include accessing a gaming application and receiving data representative of a location of a system operable by a player of an electronic game. A graphical user interface (GUI) for play of the electronic game may be displayed on an electronic display device of, or associated with, the system in response to the gaming application being accessed. Data representative of game play actions by the player in the electronic game may be relayed to the gaming application via the GUI. A computerized policy based at least in part on the location of the system may be implemented to prevent cheating or unauthorized collusion by the player in the electronic game. The computerized policy may direct one or more game control actions responsive to a presence or absence of cheating or unauthorized collusion by the player being detected in the electronic game.

  • Patent number: 11315385
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to customized collusion avoidance policies for eSports. In some embodiments, an eSports gaming platform can receive a notification request to connect one or more eSports player terminals to an eSports game. The notification request can include eSports player terminal information (e.g., a location). A customized collusion avoidance policy can be dynamically generated based, at least in part, on the location of the eSports player terminal. The customized collusion avoidance policy can include one or more actions that are triggered in response to events detected at the eSports player terminal. The customized collusion avoidance policy can be enforced during eSports game play by monitoring for any of the events identified in the customized collusion avoidance policy and, in response to detecting any of the events, executing a corresponding combination of the one or more actions.

  • Publication number: 20210407251
    Abstract: A location-based interactive electronic gaming includes determining a location of the player terminal. The method also includes first processing data representative of a request to enter an interactive electronic gaming session hosted by a host computer. The method further includes second processing data representative of the location of the player terminal, and determining, based on the second processing, if the player terminal is in a location permitted for play of an electronic game in the interactive electronic gaming session. For determining that the location of the player terminal is in the permitted location, the method includes causing the interactive electronic gaming session for the electronic game to be initiated on the player terminal. For determining that the location of the player terminal is not in the permitted location for play of the electronic game, the method includes causing the player terminal to be excluded from the interactive electronic gaming session.

  • Publication number: 20210350663
    Abstract: Mechanisms for detection of gambling rule violations including assisted and automated gameplay are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system can determine a geographic location of a player terminal. A selection of multiple games (e.g., games of skill and games of chance) which are authorized to be played in the geographic location can be presented. Gaming action from a game selected by the player can be depicted on a display and inputs from a player can be received via a player interaction display area during a course of the game to control game play. Before converting a credit total into a monetary value, the game can be monitored or reviewed to identify any collusion (e.g., two or more players sharing information or using combined knowledge to create an unfair advantage, automated gameplay, etc.).
