There are people who play gambling only while there are others who prefer betting only.
Do you think both of these type of people have different mindset and one of them is willing to take more risk than than others ?

Also do think that gambling is for the entertainment and earning money too but people do betting only to earn money and there is no element of fun involved in it.

Most of the gamblers had already taken it to the next level where they seem not able to breathe well when any of those two are unavailable to them. Yeah! entertainment is not what they want, rather those profits will make them happy if they ever won. But as you can see, when they lose, there seems no happiness in their faces because they realize what they have done. They just lose it and thinking that will somehow find a way to get back what they've lost.

In both gambling and betting, the motive is to earn the money. There is no way that anyone is gambling and did not want to win in the end. Similarly why you bet on matches, because we want to win and earn money otherwise we can get enough entertainment by watching the sports of our choice.

It is the motive you want to make money but I think every rationale gambler admits that they are betting against the odds and are unlikely to win in the long term. I have been gambling for many years and I have never profited after all this time. I have won bets but those wins turn into losses after a couple of months. I do not know any one personally who is in the green I only know of certain celebrities which made their career out of gambling. Dan Blitz is one of them.

Live with peace and enjoy life!

Maybe OP meant gambling are games like dice which are based on luck, for me, sports betting is not purely based on luck, you can use your skills here, so I will go for sports betting than any other type of game. However, we have to understand it has the same risk of losing our money, so we still have to make the right strategy and understand the basics of gambling which is the risk and reward.

I can't say anything about the types of mindset, but in my opinion, betting is much safer than gambling. Even if you have a serious addiction, due to the fact that sports events are not endless, you make certain pauses in the game and you have a chance to calm down and return to an adequate state, but if you gamble, you can continue to endlessness at any time.

Yes they are different, and taking more risk....I think those that are casino inclined take more risks because of the different kinds of strategies that are available to them, Sports Betting as few betting strategies that can be applied to it say for example hedging which isn't allowed on most platforms, others strategies like martingale can't really be applied to moat Sports games.

Let's call a spade a spade, we all gambling for profits and not fun and games...we might hide under the guise of fun but the primary objective is money am certain not everyone will agree with me

If you are betting to earn money then you are doing it wrong statistically you are not going to earn any money. Most people are in the red from bets. They do it because it is fun. You might win the odd betslip but that will soon disappear if you continue to bet. The only ones which are in the green are those that have won very large amounts and have not gone crazy with their betting since they won that large amount.

So this means that chances of winning is more in the sports betting because we are not betting against the house ?

Not really but kind of because there is a fixed chance that you win in casinos but sports betting it depends on your picks. If you are very good at watching football and know all the teams and players know their weaknesses and strengths you probably have a better chance than most people of winning regularly. Casinos you cannot do that especially on things like slots. You could count cards but that is the only example of being able to change the odds in casinos.

I think it is better to bet on sports because at least you are not trying to beat the odds of the house however yes sportsbetting is still hard because of all the variables. I find sports betting more fun too because you can watch the games fold out while you have a bet on them.

And what about the entertainment factor ? Watching the game is fun in itself but we are compare purely the gambling entertainment and betting entertainment .

Well, first of all, there are a lot of different people in the world, so for sure there are definitely indifferences between everyone. Maybe one person prefer to have it as a reward and the other one wants it as an instantaneous gambling result. They are both taking risks but one may differ in chances like in sports betting, they have the element of studying the actual team and probably increase the odds of them winning. On the other hand, gambling in roulette or other types of games that depend only on luck, most likely would be hard to predict, hence more risk. It's just that the result of the latter is faster.

It's definitely for money, I don't think it's anything else but that. If they lose, okay, it's for "entertainment".

Both are these things are gambling the difference is gambling in a casino means that the favor is always in the houses favor. Sportsbetting you are not betting against the house instead you are betting for the predictions you make and the only thing that changes the odds is the amount of people who have backed those odds. I think it is better to bet on sports because at least you are not trying to beat the odds of the house however yes sportsbetting is still hard because of all the variables. I find sports betting more fun too because you can watch the games fold out while you have a bet on them.
