Abstract: Various systems and methods enable users to submit bets via a betting matrix comprising a plurality of rows and columns. Each row corresponds to a potential outcome in a first category such as a possible score of a first team, and each column corresponds to a potential outcome in a second category such as a possible score of a second team. A user may enter a bet, e.g., by selecting one or more events and then selecting one or more elements of one or more betting matrices corresponding to the one or more events. The bets may be confirmed substantially when entered, e.g., without regard for any other bet made by any other user.
