i wil bet on sport now, and it can be very eazy to make money but jus have your good strategyy

In sports betting one need to have good knowledge on game and team players than having a strategy. But it is not so easy to make money from sports betting if that is true then by now many sports betting service providers should have closed their site. So gambling is always a very dangerous and we must need some luck to win all our bets.

Betting on sports is gambling and there is no other explanation about this. I don't think it is investment or anything else than gambling. Anything whatever is called where risk factor is involved is purely form of gambling. Putting on stake and having chances of loosing is gambling and in sports betting we sometimes loose and sometimes win so it is gambling and is same.
Exactly what you said. Investments, trading, sports betting, all of them are under gambling because of the risk factor involved in them, although only with a little variation of time it takes to get results.

I know some people don't consider sports betting gambling since you 'only' bet and you can win easy if you know the right information, but the fact is that it's not always true at all cases because there are always those unpredictable factors that can occur anytime.
I will never considered trading is gambling because gambling are giving fun for people not for making a profit unlike trading. we know they are the same risk but trading is good for making profit with low risk than gambling..

It's true friend. that gambling is something just give pleasure to those who do, the pleasure they get is a victory that is temporary and of the victory they have outstanding thinking well, however can lead them into a very dangerous gambling addiction (want to get rich quick with gambling/benefit). It is something very harmful if they can't control themselves

In a game when we bet our money for getting someone else money we involve in gambling, and we know that in sports betting we do the same, there we also bet for getting some money so sport betting is also gambling. It is considered as a type of gambling.

You are right, in any game or sport where we bet our money is called as gambling, there are different types of gambling just like indoor and out door gambling, sport betting is also a type of gambling.

Bet is part of gambling, so if you say betting on sport, of course we're talking about gambling.
Were you talking about "invest" on sport, maybe we could see people argue that it's not gambling.

In the end, people don't care much about it anyway.

In my opinion we gamble our money away by picking a team on who/which will win and expecting a profit depending on an outcome of the game. So basically sports betting is considered gambling.
Yeah its gambling if you dont have a bet we can not considered it as gambling if we are just member of the team or game.. and don't spend any dime or money they we can not considered it as gambling..

Betting on sport = gambling?
Please write your mind.

According To Me There Is a Difference Between Gambling and Betting Because in Gambling We Are Playing Games Like Dice, Slots, Blackjack But In Betting We Are Playing On a Sports Event.....
And Basically Gambling Depends On Our Luck and Betting Depends On Our Knowledge And Experience About the Sports Event....
I thought sports betting is a kind of gambling, even it not only depends on our knowledge and experiences about team that will be in match. because we don't know for sure the end of the game moreover team on match are equal, so its about predictions and luck.

There are just some different between gambling and betting, as betting for me is used to sports gambling, while casinos, slots, those others kinds of games are considered as gambling, for me its almost the same but well they are a bit diferent.

They are same, betting is almost gambling, betting means do research and taking the risk. Gambling means randomness like baccarat and blackjack, and sports are also random results.

in my opinion it is just word play and nothing else.

betting and gambling and betting on sports or any other thing you want to call it. they are all the same. you put down some money on an event that its result is not clear and if you predict it right you win and if not you lose.

and it is as simple as that. why you want to complicate things. yes skills are effective in games like sports betting but it is still gambling and your luck decides your fate Smiley

Betting on sports is not gambling. It is also like a market where you look for value in the lines given. An example of this is the Woodley versus Lawler fight. The line of Woodley opened at +185 then it went down to +125 in fight day. This means that if you make a bet at the opening you would have made some value. But of course he has to win the fight so it is good to do your research.

Why you said sports betting is not gambling ? Of course sports betting is gambling and sports betting is very2 popular type of gambling around the world.
Yes, sports betting is also like one type in Gambling. But it all depends on how you take gambling. According to me, it is Gambling. And Sports betting is safe gambling method. If you use your skill set, you can quickly make money here. So there is no difference in gambling and sports betting both are equal.
True, sports betting  is also gambling since it involves betting which means you risking money for a certain thing.  Sports betting has lesser risk compared  to  dice games on my opinion because you could study first the  team or player  you would place your bet but still you need also luck in order to win unlike dice games  which is like you gamble blindly.

Whether its a sport event or some other programs, if someone play a betting on particular then sure its a form of gambling. Most people quote it as a sports betting.
Yeah, if you bet in a particular game then that's already called gambling. Gambling will not always be called gambling if there is no money involve there.  Wink
