Esports Technologies Files Patent for Artificial Intelligence-Powered Real-Time Odds Modeling & Simulation System
Esports Technologies, Inc., a leading global provider of advanced esports wagering products and technology, announced today that it has 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.
The system uses machine learning and advanced quantitative methods to generate odds instantly for any number of esports match and tournament types, as well as for different stages of the match or tournament for proposition bets, and a variety of betting markets. The filing contemplates a system where bettors can wager on teams throughout a tournament and while games are being played. Examples of bets that could be made with this technology include which team will place in the top three, or outside the top five, or what round the team will make it to.
Bart Barden, COO, Esports Technologies, said, “I’m extremely proud of our quant and modeling team, which continues to develop potential industry-leading data solutions. Harnessing cutting-edge modeling and artificial intelligence to create the technology for this planned next-generation wagering tool demonstrates our commitment to innovation and our focus on the needs of esports enthusiasts and bettors everywhere. We continue to advance and innovate the esports wagering experience for customers.”
This technology is the latest addition to Esports Technologies’ portfolio of advanced wagering offerings. In June 2021, the company 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.

ICONIC21 launches iDealer Blackjack with a real-time AI dealer
ICONIC21 has launched iDealer Blackjack, a seven-seat RNG blackjack game that adds a “fully live, AI-powered dealer” to the traditional virtual table experience.
The iGaming content provider said the title was developed in collaboration with RAVATAR using its real-time interactive AI avatar technology, positioning the product as a response to demand for more interaction in RNG table games.
According to the companies, the dealer is real-time rather than pre-recorded or scripted, can welcome players by nickname, and can maintain conversation during play. ICONIC21 also said the dealer “remembers players and their past interactions,” while understanding players “in any language” and responding in English with localized touches.
The game’s background uses a live stream from one of ICONIC21’s studios, which the company said is designed to ground the AI dealer in a real-world environment.
Edvardas Sadovskis, Chief Product Officer at ICONIC21, said: “iDealer Blackjack is a natural progression for RNG tables. It’s important to highlight that this product is not a challenge to live casino as we know it. The AI-powered dealer is not trying to be human. It is exactly what it is: an expressive, well-built companion that makes the game more engaging.
One of the most interesting things we’ve already noticed is how players interact with it. Because they understand they are speaking to artificial intelligence, conversations go far beyond standard live casino chat. Players are asking about history, world facts, random trivia, jokes, and all kinds of unexpected topics during gameplay. This creates a completely different level of engagement around the table.
Also, the customisation roadmap is active and expanding. iDealer Blackjack is a strong foundation with a great deal still to be built on top of it.”
Ruslan Synytsky, CEO at RAVATAR, said: “The next decade of iGaming will be defined by AI-powered presence, personality, and interaction, not just better graphics or faster gameplay. ICONIC21 came to us with a strong sense of what their product needed to feel like for players.
iDealer Blackjack, built on our AI avatar platform, is the first step into that future and sets the direction for what RNG gaming can become.”

Slotmatic previews Pidiots in London during EGR week with live tournament test
The studio frames the 3 June showing as an early prototype and engagement experiment, not a full launch.
Slotmatic will stage a live preview of its new slot universe, Pidiots, on 3 June in London during EGR Awards week, alongside what it says will be the first tournament built around the title. The company positions the activation as a public test of how it wants to launch and iterate slots, rather than a conventional release.

Slotmatic says the EGR-week build is intentionally an early preview and that the “full Pidiots experience” is expected to evolve over the coming months. The studio describes a roadmap built around recurring characters, evolving mechanics, adaptive feature systems, tournaments and creator-oriented interactions. It characterises the London showing as “a prototype, a public laboratory, and a live engagement test.”

The press release ties the title’s design to social and creator behaviour, with a cast Slotmatic calls “The Gang of Five” and visuals it says reference meme culture, streaming and internet-native aesthetics. The stated aim is to create characters that can live beyond the base game across tournaments and social content, framing the IP as a broader “slot saga” rather than a standalone title.

Alongside the content layer, Slotmatic pitches what it calls a shift toward a “Slot Intelligence Layer” spanning creation, behavioural analysis, feature testing, deployment and live evolution. CTO Domenico Vacchiano argues feature architecture will drive differentiation, saying: “A feature is not decoration. It is engineered attention.” He also claims the company is exploring predictive modelling to simulate engagement outcomes before launch, adding: “True innovation is not predicting the future. It is reducing the cost of uncertainty.”
Slotmatic says its proprietary AI engine, AGENTIX, is built for slot modelling, feature logic and behavioural simulation, and that it is progressing through RNG certification, RGS certification, game certification and security testing, with “ISO 27001-oriented security infrastructure development for UK and Italian regulated markets.” The company also claims an engineering ecosystem of around 100 professionals contributing across AI systems, game development, predictive systems and infrastructure.
