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.

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.

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.
it is definitely gambling in my opinion, though sports might be easier to win sometimes to be honest
"Sometimes" need to emphasis that because in most cases many fixed bet already around the sports house
so even we think the is just easy to predict but if fixed games happen we will be burning out too.

This is somehow a risk when we are playing  on sports betting  some may have fixed games which would  definitely opposes our bets. Sportbetting is indeed a gambling since we are risking our money to gain money. and gambling is all about  risking your money. Theres no need to ask Smiley

Yes, I will not say it is not gambling as I have experienced the gambling nature in sports betting.

Sports betting is also unpredictable for me at time to time based on the type of sport I am going to bet with.

T20 cricket betting must be pure gambling as this type of matches are very hard to predict for the outcome. Instead of trying betting on this particular sport, it would be better to leave off as sports betting is not giving an entertainments.

When ever there is some kind of bet its gambling. You can gamble will it be raining day tomorrow or not, its a gambling. Betting on sports is gambling, and people bet on every possible sport there is in this world. Football, basketball, tennis, and many other illegal sports as well.
Sports betting is not so easy as it seems, sometimes its very hard to make profit there. Depends on strategy you have, money you plan to bet with, and many other things. So people shouldn't live in illusion that betting on sports is not gambling.

The term 'betting' could be replaced with term 'gambling' when sports betting will be having huge amount of risks. Yes, I believe as long as sports betting is not that much risk involved, we need not to call it as gambling.
But once if you feel sports betting has no difference from other gambling, then we could obviously could call sports betting as gambling.

Not that much risk involved but still you are gambling your money isn't it? Then it's no different, low bets or high.

But yes, people have different views about the main concern and for me sports betting is already a gambling once people placed a bet for it involving their own money.

I can't see any thing that can linked out the term gambling when betting on a sport.

Betting on sport as long as there is money involved is already considered a gambling. Even a physical thing that is put on the bet, can be considered as gambling.

Correct, anything  that involves money or  risking something does already considered as  gambling . I dont know  why  op such ask these kind of  question since its  clearly a gambling  when we intend to play sports betting because  we are betting  to a certain player or team.

betting sport is gambling

Any betting is called Gambling. It may be sports or Slot games. If you put your money in a risk to make your money double. Then this is known as Gambling. But Sports betting is the safe betting, here winning chance is bit high to compare slot games. In gambling, we need self-control . Otherwise, it is not possible to make a profit in gambling.

Sportsbetting , dice , plinko , bingo , raffle , lottery they are all a form of gambling . They are just different ways of games but as long as there is a money involve to win or to lose it is still a gambling. As long as there is a risk that you can lose or you can win money.

Yeah as long as there are money related to bet it is going to be considered as gambling. And all you have said are types of gambling games. Even if you are going to do trading that is going to be considered as gambling too because you are going to risk your money but good thing that it is lesser risk rather than gambling, because it has the highest risk.

in hope of winning more from it.

So basically, betting in sports game is
indeed a type of gambling,
for those who said no,
