Abstract
Systems in accordance with embodiments of the invention provide separation between a computing device and a server that is constructed to execute a wager in accordance with a gambling proposition and contains the auditable systems and functions enabling gaming regulatory body approval. However, the wager is initiated by, and the result of the wager is to be communicated to, the computing device in an environment that is separate from the server and its auditable systems and functions. A controller is used to interface between the server and the computing device in its separate environment. The controller receives data from the computing device and uses that data to trigger wagers in the server. The controller receives wager outcomes from the server and converts those wager outcomes into instructions that are used to control the computing device, thus separating the computing device and the server.
