Topic: Betting on sport = gambling? (Read 13356 times)
Gambling is defined as putting money and having the desired result, which is winning. And for that concept alone, you can say that sports betting is equal to gambling. Once you wager or thinks about the odds of winning, that's already gambling. Anything that risks money is already gambling.
No it is not gambling it is betting because betting is on sports and gambling is on casino things and that 2 things dont have nothing connected only 2 things are connected and that is luck and you can win or lose.
Lol gambling does not need casino to be made. Once there is a wagering, a stake, and chance of winning is presence, then it is gambling. You can search in the internet what is gambling and you can see that what you have stated somehow does not make sense . Another thing is gambling is a game of chance, not a game of luck.
Yeah I agree with you mate. It is a game of chance for which you need a lil luck so that you dont end up losing a 98% chance winner.

Betting on sports too will be considered as gambling. Anything in which you risk your earnings for a better profit depending upon the odds selected in accordance to luck and strategies can be considered as gambling.
Betting on sport = gambling?
Please write your mind.
What you think? Putting money in sports is already considered as gambling you can't play or bet without money you can't able to afford to bet if you don't have money on your hand or any balance from your wallet accounts. Betting on sports is a gambling how you can win money if you don't play with your money. Please write your mind.
Exactly, both are same. Sports betting is a part of gambling, and gambling is here, than we can play sports betting, Otherwise if no concept of gambling, than nothing is here in sports betting, and other games where we do bet.
I am not agree on it, that sports betting is a different way and gambling is also a different way, both are same and both have same ways, no different with each other.
Actually some people consider luck based games as gambling and brain or skill based games as investment, I never quite got it why because betting means betting and even if luck plays a 1% role in deciding the result then its gambling.I am not agree on it, that sports betting is a different way and gambling is also a different way, both are same and both have same ways, no different with each other.
While I do not like to play sports betting much but actually its best form of gambling to date till now.
No it is not gambling it is betting because betting is on sports and gambling is on casino things and that 2 things dont have nothing connected only 2 things are connected and that is luck and you can win or lose.
But you can notice that there is one thing happens in both of them and that is betting our money to get others money. In sports betting we bet our money on sports while in casino games we bet our money on these games which are played in casinos.

According to me Sports Betting is a Part of Gambling Where we are Betting Our Money on Different Sporting Events to expect to double or triple money and also the the risk involves in betting as same in gambling.Please write your mind.
So I think that Betting is Not fully Gambling but a major part of Gambling.
If you just said to your friends, I bet my favorite sport team will win tonight without any stake then it's not gambling.
But, what Op has been asked I thought 'sports betting' as part of gambling.
Exactly, both are same. Sports betting is a part of gambling, and gambling is here, than we can play sports betting, Otherwise if no concept of gambling, than nothing is here in sports betting, and other games where we do bet.

I bet on sports and I know its gambling, professional gambling isn't myth, people live from gambling, and some people bet with big money. I know people addicted on sports betting, they place thousands of euros on their bets. Betting on sports is definitely gambling.
I dont know why some people are voting to no.. and i think it is obvious that sports betting is a gambling because there is bet means they are putting a risk of their money.. into a battle if who will win you can get the profit or you lose your money.. so we can say iti s gambling..It is proven that sports betting is based on knowledge and can be profitable if you are experienced there. But other gambling are not so, even in my experience.
also they are voting to "no" because they only see the difference between sports betting and gambling and they didn't noticed what is the similarity crairezx20 is right there's a thing called bet and people are putting a money with a same risk as gambling in that way we can already see what is the similarity between the two and we can consider betting is also a gambling .

I think Juha sports gambling, including gambling. but in sports gambling is different from the others because we can review team that will compete in advance to determine who will be the winner later. Many people who love sports gambling for that reason
It is obviously a gambling, sport betting is a gambling. You bet money to win something, that is considered gambling.
So I think that Betting is Not fully Gambling but a major part of Gambling.
It's obviously gambling because there's a value of money involved already. If there's no money involve then we can call it as a game only but time is different now, we like to make it more fun by putting our bets to satisfy our self by getting the reward of our hard work in analyzing games. In fact, it's one of the favorites in gambling, sports betting is very interesting hence making it popular for the punters.
Yes a sport betting without money maybe considered as NOT gambling. When a game with money and also goes up and down like uncertain head or tail game then why not we call it gambling. Sport betting has all the characteristics of gambling and all the risks also.
Wait? What? Sport betting without money is "maybe" considered as not gambling? That is so confusing. You call it sports betting right? And then you said that without money it can be considered as not gambling. That's wrong, even without money it can be still called gambling. That's why it is called sport betting, if it don't involve money it is just sport, not sport betting. And even without money, you can still bet things like your car and house.

Sports betting is gambling and I have no doubt about it. Whatever gambling method u take, Even in those u have acquired some knowledge, be it a strategy or just looking at the previous outcomes. Leicester won the premier league last year when the odds on them were huuge about 5000/1 at the start of the season where as it was 2x or less on Manchester City. Even there u have the information. Man City does have a better squad but what happened? did your knowledge come to any good use? Thats just one example, Sports too r unpredictable similar to other gambling methods.

Oke, Here is my answer. For me, Betting is gambling, I repeat Betting is gambling. Gambling and betting are two same things. So for me Betting on sport is also gambling. Simple for me.
I don't understand on how people is distinguishing betting from gambling or betting on sports different from gambling itself.
Because they are identifying that betting is another activity which is just related to gambling but they don't know that betting is simply gambling.
That they are risking their money or wagering it for the hope to get some profit in return.
yeah i think so although there's so many things that is different from two which is in gambling that we are talking about we tend to do some actions in order to get a certain profit and in sports we are just usually watching a game but still they are similar to each other because like you have said on sports betting there's a involved betting as well as in gambling there's commonly mentioned bet so betting on sports actually considered as gambling .
