Gambling using phone as a medium

[Somebody]

hey guys,

 

i'm doing a proj on online gaming/gambling and that includes telephones and pagers... do you have any idea or heard from any friends about gambling using the phone or "pager" as a medium?

 

eg. with bookies,

 

you may get smses from the bookies to give the odds, and you can call them to place your bets but you'll still have to meet a runner to get the $ or pay the $.

 

or illegal horsebetting where some use the old style pager to get odds and news about the horses.

 

can anyone provide me more information, you don't necessarily have to have done it before, but i just need good information on how it works.

 

like... how the information comes through, how the odds are communicated to the bettor, how the bets are placed, how the $ is exchanged?

 

thanks a lot!!!
