Betting on sport = gambling?
Please write your mind.

Yes ofcourse it is a gambling also because it dealing with money and if you're betting it's called gambling already if you can see you are involving money there try to play gambling you are dealing with mone also the same with betting on sports.

it is true that where ever money is involved and their is some type of winning or loosing then it is called gambling but in sports gambling you can earn by doing small research and analysis but in casino gambling it is totally luck based.

If we put our money in a risk to double our money, then this is called gambling. So the sports betting also gambling. Because here we are placing our bet through our personal money. Means putting our money at risk. So according to me the sports betting and gambling both are same.
Exactly the word betting makes it gambling, and you cannot underestimate sports betting as based on my research the sports industry are more profitable combined the music and movie industry, they are a billion dollar industry that's why you can see games being fixed.

i think both of them are not a direct gambling part because these are different from each other . in my openion sportbet is depends on experience of gambling mind to play the game whether on sport or direct video game but in gambling there os only a luck that gibes profit or loss .

Of course it is. Anything u put your money on, for which the result is unknown, is a form of betting. It might be result of a sports or digit of a block hash or price of a stock, it is gambling.

Not exactly anything, for example in trading you also put your money at risk to gain profit, yet trading is established profession and traders are hired by companies all over the world. What is the difference?
Well, in sports gambling your profit/loss ratio would be around 1:1, going to slightly over 50% in best cases, while professional traders have much higher and reliable ratio.

the difference is that in gambling no matter what the game is, you can never predict the result. even in sports betting the players can have a brainfart and lose that game. or the other team can present their A game and win against you. but in trading there are a lot of ways to predict the market and also you can always get out with little loss instead of losing it all.

Agree with you, all gambling  results is  unpredicted which  causes for us to lose our money and thats a normal  thing  when we are playing gambling.  Sportbetting is indeed considered as gambling  because you are risking your money to win some money and thats already understandable.

Of course it is gambling as long as you bet your money and has the chances to win or to lose it, then its gambling and to add it up, when a games got odds then that games is consider as gambling and sport betting is easier to make profit

Of course it is. As long as the word "betting" of money is involve it is called gambling on whatever you do. I know there are people that would say that it's not but the truth is, it really is.
thats true, sports are definitely gambling and nothing else, in my opinion it is hard to win it
That is true that sports betting is also gambling as there we bet for our money to win or lose but it is not true that it is hard to win as if we look at other gambling ways then there we have to rely only on luck while in sports betting we also have to rely on our knowledge.

If sports are hard to win at, imagine in slot machines, you may pass ages playing and winning 0. In sports betting chances are higher as you may follow a tipster if you don't have the time to analyze the event for yourself just check their threads to get a few info from each one. This information is free in the forum.

And yes sports betting is same as gambling as your are gambling your money.
There is no chance in slots almost its likely the same in any dice game. Sportsbetting is one of the good choice to gamble and yeah tipster can help you to choose what is the best team that you can bet and make a good profit but not all tipster are always right to choose there still risk from tipsters.

It's a gamble as you don't know the outcome of an event. Although in this kind of gambling you have more chances to win than playing slots machines which you rely purely on luck. Still this is called gambling as same fundamentals are used, you gamble your money for easy profit.

It is absolutely true, that all gambling that we do not have a certainty. so if we do a gambling and have confidence that is very large (the victory of) then it all will not provide a good effect when you get is defeat. Better do a simple mind gambling with and don't expect

I would go for yes that its gambling because it involves putting your resources somewhere and expecting returns with sizeable amount of risks you're willing to take which could either be favourable or not favourable at the same time what you're expecting if favourable you didn't work for it so its pure gamble...

Yes it is, because no matter what, when we lose in sports betting, we lose real money and whatever thing used in bets if by any means contains monetary value, then I think considering it gambling would not be wrong.

it is all about two main factors in gambling
1) money
2) unpredictable risks

and betting on sports have both of these attributes so it is the same as any other gambling games.
but the only difference is that the chance of winning is not all about what your luck is but also it is about your "information."

Yes according to me , if you place your money on anything and  you don't know the outcome ,its gambling . Betting on sports comes under predictive analysis and without any doubt its gambling . Basically if you risk your money on anything whose result is not certain , its gambling.

If you place your money on anything with an uncertain outcome in order to win more money, that's gambling. So, I think both of them are the same really.

Yeah as long as you are going to risk your money regardless the amount even that is going to be related to sports that is going to be considered already as gambling.

And many are getting attracted into sports betting especially in UFC and boxing because while enjoying watching they are also hoping to win their bets.
