1. A computer implemented method of revealing portions of outcomes of real-world wagers through interactive media applications, the method being implemented in a computer system having a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon computer program instructions and one or more physical processors programmed with the computer program instructions that, when executed by the one or more physical processors, cause the computer system to perform the method, the method comprising:
storing, by the computer system, a plurality of reserve wagers in a reserve wager store;
providing, by the computer system, a wager opportunity to a user via interactive media;
receiving, by the computer system, an acceptance of the wager opportunity by the user;
matching, by the computer system, at least one reserve wager of the plurality of reserve wagers in the reserve wager store with the accepted wager opportunity;
obtaining, by the computer system, an outcome of the matched reserve wager;
updating, by the computer system, an unrevealed account balance based on the outcome of the matched reserve wager; and
causing, by the computer system, at least a portion of the unrevealed account balance to be revealed to the user by the user's interaction with the interactive media.
