Sports betting is purely gambling as you are not going to get sure income because of loosing risks involved. Sports betting is less risky or has more chances that is not the issue. That is simple to understand gambling is equal to win/loose and sports betting also works on this prescribed definition so they are equal and same by all aspects and means.

In general , yes it is .Anything involved, jewelry ,car ,etc or place on a bet it is still considered and called as gambling esp. money on betting theres no difference there .

Indeed gambling has very large definition where we put our money risk that is gambling of course, sports betting also have risks and that is why there is no difference between sports betting and playing on dice, sports betting is less risky because it is all based on our experience and knowledge.

I totally agree with you that sports betting is less risky as you can get full details about the match and the teams who are going to play with their previous records , so with this help you can prepare a report of the upcoming match result, if you take less risky bet then surely you will be in profit but in other gambling dice and casino games what ever strategy you do you will be in loss at the end.

Betting on sport = gambling?
Please write your mind.


Well I voted for "yes", although I agree profession sports betting is not a myth. Although it's not a myth it's still gambling. You can call it professional gambling if you want, and I think it's possible both in sports betting, and in poker as well. I can't see it in any other place. Trading of course is the same, and you can even talk about sports trading (I tried it for a while). But even sports trading is still sports betting and gambling, but if done correctly it can be done in a professional level.
There are a lot of supporting points that must be leading us into considering sports betting as equavelent as gambling. A lot of unexpected events are happening around sports events, one of the must be match fixing. In that case, whatever analysis or predictions we are following, we could not make profits from sports betting, it is just simply turning similar to gambling.
If you are really a good handicapper, match fixing is just normal to you and that factor is one of the thing you need to consider in capping games. To be honest, you will not win in gambling or sports betting in particular if you will only base on the statistics.

Betting against the public is the game here.

Yes Bro According to me Betting is a Gambling Because Here We Risk Our Money And It Depends Upon Our Luck But Here the Winning Odds Depends Upon Our Experience and Knowledge About the Particular Sports Event....

To me too, it is pure gambling so far you it invloves a situation where you have to put your resources on the line to get a certain return in excess of what you initially put into it then it is gambling coupled with the risk you have to take to get that return then I conclude it is no different than gambling.

Yeah this is surely gambling and a type of gambling. As long as there is money involve that you put into risk then that is considered as gambling, even trading we can also consider that as gambling because there is no certain result what is going to happen to your money as you trade. In conclusion all types of betting game are gambling.

You must be right. When there is no research and analysis involved with the a particular sports on a particular day, still if you are going for betting on that day might result in gambling your resources. There are few chances with sports betting to analyse your outcome, if you miss that then there won't be any difference.

First Of All I Want to Tell You The Difference Between Betting And Gambling:-
1) Sports Betting:- Sports Betting Mainly Depends Upon Your Experience And Your Knowledge And Your Luck About A Particular Sports Event.....
2) Gambling:- Gambling Mainly Depends Upon Your Luck in This Your Experience And Knowledge Have No Role.....
So According To Me Sports Betting is Not Gambling.....

That's not correct, because betting itself proves that it is one type of gambling only.
It is gambling because in both, you lose everything when you lose and both have "odds" with them what make them similar.

Of course its gambling its exactly the same, the only thing that is changing is the game you are playing and the reason on what you are betting.
I think that its not wrong but that its 100% same without doubts.

And we can definitely make some good reference and analyzations so that we can big in sports betting unlike the usual dice or slots where all you need is to watch.

As long as we are betting money in a sports that is already a gambling.

Yeah of course betting on sport games is also gambling because your are betting you money on the team that you think is going to win.
You do not know the outcome of the game so you take a gamble, that is gambling.

Yeah i also agree with you that betting on sport game is also considering as a gambling.But for me,there are still a interesting part in sport game.The first one,is we can increase the chance for winning by doing some research about two team who will play in the next game.But,still some times,the weak team can win from a strong team.

Of course it's gambling.  There is a little skill involved in making your choice but it's still a game of chance.  That  sounds a whole lot like gambling to me.
Yes in sports betting we need the small skill set. If we have that much knowledge, then it is easy to make money in sports betting. But in gambling, we don't need any skill in slot games just roll and win. So sports and gambling in both condition, we are putting our money at risk. So I think both are same.

Definitely! Betting in sport is gambling, that is another reason why sports betting is in gambling section.  People who are betting in sports are trying their  luck on the team they choose. And gambling is defined as risky action in the hope of a desired result.  And sports betting defines that too since it plays games of chance for money; bet.

This is  also  i really want to say. Indeed  you are very correct  because  if  we say betting on sport  its actually  gambling because  you are risking something to  earn  money  and  thats the essence of doing gambling. Sports betting  is also  a gambling  as  he said it places  on  gambling section which is  understandable already.

yes no doubt about this. that biting on sports is also gambling and i think it is less risky than any other game of gambling, actually in gambling you always find a chance to recover your position in any stage of the game. therefore it is more profitable and less risky than any other type of gambling.

Of course its gambling its exactly the same, the only thing that is changing is the game you are playing and the reason on what you are betting.
I think that its not wrong but that its 100% same without doubts.
