These games are extremely weird. I wonder if the butt slap or face slap games still existed. Because at some point i was actively following them on their sports channel on Instagram and YouTube. Funny enough i enjoyed the female player where they have to slap each others butt until one of them cant endure the pain anymore and quit. Its of funny that you have to see their face or butt so red and with the face games , some people barely made it out with full conscience. Most of them pass out when they cant hold it anymore.

Such games are illegal and wouldn't want to be included in casinos. Am sure by now they must have banned or restrict these games i mentioned so far.

I've only seen a few clips of slapping competitions (since it's something I'm initially disgusted by) and I can't understand how it can be legal? When I see men weighing 100-120 kilograms slap each other, I don't understand how they don't lose their hearing or get some kind of brain damage. It's not fun at all at a high level of competition (when extremely strong athletes are involved).

I've seen such thing (hard to call it as a sport) as artificial or equestrian (dont know how it supposed to be called), when girl with artificial horse head on stick run on a sand and jump over barriers. Google say it is hobby horsing. Just look on the size of one of these competitions Cheesy Moreover, this is an international championship, which means such competitions and "sports" happens all around the world. Is this available for betting? If yes, how is it even possible to make a prediction, if 0 depends from a horse skill Cheesy
See? It looks like what I have said above is correct, hehe. It's only surprising up until this point on why there is now an international championship for this sport or game when I think many people in the world like me haven't heard of this before but thanks for letting me and others know it exclusively on this thread/post right here. Since there is a horse there and its scheme is still like a sport, I wouldn't be surprised if one day we can now see this in the popular events such as the Olympics, or it will now be added in one of the categories of our favourite sports betting website. That's cool though and many are for sure going to support it.

Weighlifting and shooting looks strange as a sports to bet. As they are so individual and random. It is not like there are top3-5 athletes that compete against each other all the time. Each year there is often a different guy that represents a country. Dont know how to make a prediction who is going to win.

That's easy. You predict a country to win. For instance, you have shooters from different countries compete at the Olympics. You bet on who gets what medal. It's the same as betting on boxers in a match, you just choose the winner.

Do you really think that shooting is strange? There's so many shooting competitions on international level, like biathlon.
Shooting isn't strange at all to be and it's true that there has been a lot of competitions happening globally. Some local communities are even having their own times getting together and just enjoying the fire at ranges. It's not only for military men to do it but they've got advantages because they've got experience in the field. But for some casual shooter, it can be a hobby. And with the recent viral shooting guy of Turkiye in the Olympics, it's possible that there will be more people that are going to be interested on this sport.

Weird Sports You Didn’t Know Existed, Available for Betting Fun

After reading this article it got me thinking how many games are out there that most of us haven't even heard of, but they do exist and some groups of people bet on those games. Here in Serbia, everyone bets on popular games, and the cock fighting (just one example) is not popular here, but in illegal circles there are some dog fights. Still, I wish to discuss just "legal games" with available markets in some casinos.

I guess a lot of people heard about these games from the article, but I didn't know that people actually bet on something like this. So I am interested if there is anyone here who bet on "not popular" sports/games, maybe some description, and where we can learn more about that game/sport.


Dunno if this counts as a weight sport but my friends and I had this thing way back in Pandemic times where we bet on gambling in the literal sense. We have this thing set up where we'd play the same games each day, and whoever bags the most wins gets to keep the prize money which we pooled up with. Like I said it's kind of weird but in a manner of speaking not really, it's just that I haven't heard nor saw someone do the same thing especially since it adds a level of complexity to gambling which is somewhat unprecedented.

In any case, it was fun, it actually was the gateway for gambling for me, as if that hadn't happened I think I wouldn't be introduced to gambling now, and I'd be bored as balls back in 2020 while everyone's out social distancing themselves and dying from the literal plague.

However, another sport I was able to just discover which gained mass popularity last year 2023 when it got launched by a mixed martial arts fighter "Dane White" is "Power Slap", of which only recently during my research was able to discover that it also offers a gambling ability for people to gamble on which person likely a win a Slap match set between two individuals. So literally, this is one weird game I will gladly love to place a bet on, as a gambler is likely to have a better winning chance if he place a bet on a fighter who has proven to show more endurance skill to withstand heavy slaps which comes it's way.

Moreover, I will be glad if anybody knows a reputable Bitcoin casino which offers this game, as I was only about to see a single casino which offers the gambling of this currently from its official website. However, I will be glad if you do your own research.

I think people are only calling them weird sports because they do not know about the sports or are not betting on them but for those that patronized the sports, they would not find them wired.


 This should mean there are many other sports too that we do not know about but we should not called them weird.

 I just discovered that there is a sport that involved people slapping eachother and you can bet on them too but for people who do not know about this sport, they will called it weird when they see people betting on it. People can make money in any sport they like.

People will call it weird because weird is an unusually action or activity and when you (anyone) are not conversant with something, you will not see that thing as strange to you but it can be strange (weird) to another person probably because the person has not seen such action/activity before or the person doesn't like like such kinds of activity.

For example, apart from the slapping game you mentioned, someone also mentioned about a game of eating dog meat where gamblers are betting on the game. Earlier before now, I have heard about a game where gamblers place a bet on someone to eat a large chunk of raw beef. Those are weird for me because I have not witnessed it and even if I do, I will only place a bet but can not take part in eating such things.

its just unusual to others but to the people where the game was created, its not. we have some local games as well that other culture may find it weird but its been done every time a festival date arrives. like chasing a muddy pig.

it could just be culture. if other countries let their dogs fight, in my country its the roosters.

Something we may not know about gambling is that most gamblers only bets on certain nature of games that they are familiar about, games they could find fun playing with the ability to fit analysis the games and not just leaning of picking the odds lon zigzag.

Some gamblers occasionally visits some kind of weird games to bet on at times definitely giving an utmost lucky trial if they might be able to win even though the games seems uninteresting.

So literally... There could be those games listed in the casinos which are unfamiliar to you but are being familiar with some other players. The thing is that majority of gamblers love to bet on popular games.
I am placing bets on football; it's the only sport for which I have some generic knowledge that I can put to use. Occasionally, I also bet on basketball, but I'm mostly a football fan. I'm understanding that there's an audience for these "sports" to be provided by casinos. I'm guessing people are mostly messing around since I can't find a plausible reason to bet on something that can't really be considered a sport and, second, on something that you're completely unfamiliar with. This is why the majority of gamblers avoid such games.

What's next? Aside from spider fight that I said, I wonder if we have a sport for arm wrestling already?
Yes there's!

The World Arm wrestling Championship was founded in 1977, the competition has been exist for 47 years. If I'm not mistaken arm wrestling quite popular in the last 1-2 year(2).

Sport is something that people practice as a hobby, a leisure activity, a profession or a way of exercising, but if it exists only to encourage a bet involving money... then it can be anything, but never a sport.
Quidditch fall to a way of exercising.
Cheerleading fall to practice as a hobby.
Rock, paper, scissors fall to a leisure activity.
Wife carrying fall to a way of exercising.
Underwater Hockey fall to a way of exercising.

Isn't all of them are sports based on your definition? Cheesy

I learned recently that there is usually a game between rams organized by the owners of the ram. These rams are not trained for the sports so I don't know how they get them to fight each other, It's not like they fight for real but what the rams do is lock horns. They stand at a distance facing each other then run at each other and hit each other with their horns then go back again and do it again. They do it till one ram dies, passes out or gives up.
Meanwhile, gambling is going on in that very instant. People are placing bets on which animal will win and are cheering and roaring with a lot of bant. I don't know how legal that is but it's not hidden, especially during festive holidays in some parts of the country.

I grew up seeing this type of gambling, especially during festive seasons, ram owners and people who bought rams for celebration will be carrying them to popular spots for entertainment and gambling. The owners of the rams and bystanders will bet on the rams that will win, the rams will continue to lock horns until one of them injures or gives up on defeat. Although the sport is less popular now than it was before, maybe there's a restriction on it now. I doubt that any casinos will put up a game like that because of animals rights protection.

Truly, all sports are turning into business, and not only for athletes. But a game like "Rock, Paper, Scissors" made me laugh out loud when I learned that it is also a gambling game for money. What next? Will we compete in everything where we can be first, hoping only for luck? Since such entertainment as wife-carrying or cheerleader dancing was simple, beautiful, and funny, however, the simpler the idea of the game, the less a person needs to be literate in something and think, and therefore, it is easier to throw away your money.
Back when we are just kids, we are used to gamble in a spider fight. Like literally 2 spiders fighting with each other and the winner will eat the other one. I know it sounds absurd and it doesn't happen in most countries, but we find it entertaining at that time. Maybe we might see something like that in the future as well? I mean I didn't expect a sport called "Powerslap" emerged. Also, these very basic games are the ones that we didn't expect to be available for betting online, but it happens.

What's next? Aside from spider fight that I said, I wonder if we have a sport for arm wrestling already? Anyway, sports are becoming weirder and weirder nowadays. It's all about money like you said at the end of the day, and they don't care about the entertainment factor.

It's been banned in a ton of countries and hopefully, soon in every single one of them, it's the most pointless game of all, this and bullfighting need to end, if anyone says anything about tradition then we should also ring back gladiator games too.

Absolutely right, such an activity as bullfighting has no place in the modern civilized world in 2024.
Gambling contains a huge variety of games, and everyone can find something to their taste.
Animals should not suffer because someone wants to observe stupid traditions or because he likes animals torturing each other.

Same here in the Philippines, cockfighting was also legal before but after a lot of criminal cases related to cockfighting government halted all operators from cockfighting there are still a lot of underground cockfighting events which it is really illegal, some making it available online so you can bet online but some are afraid because those matches could be only replay of fights before.

It's kinda weird for me but but for other countries that it's common, it's not weird.

Cockfighting remains legal until today. However, it has to be in an actual arena and betting is done manually. What was made illegal are online cockfighting betting operations, which became very popular during the pandemic because actual cockfighting in arenas were prohibited following the directive that mass gatherings should be avoided. Online betting on cockfights was controversial on various grounds. Other than the crimes related to it, the social cost of it was also quite high. It was too accessible and was operating 24/7. That caused massive addiction among bettors.

Now, everything's back to normal. Cockfighting resumes but limited to physical arenas. No more online betting.

Nowadays people are inventing everything to make some money.
The strange thing for me, actually, is that you call it "sport", for me, a lot of what is mentioned there is just an invention to make more money... or would they exist beyond the game if there weren't money involved?

Sport is something that people practice as a hobby, a leisure activity, a profession or a way of exercising, but if it exists only to encourage a bet involving money... then it can be anything, but never a sport.

Anyway... I prefer to stick to what is more traditional and safe for my bets.

In fairness to arm wrestling, this seems to be not that weird anymore as it's gaining popularity nowadays.
weirdly enough I never found arm wrestling as a weird sport to bet on.
I guess before that it's weird when it's a plain sport and kids playing this on the playground. But it has become in some way that because of the emergence of sports betting and it's already attached to it. And there's a growing community on it and that's why the popularity of it is becoming bigger nowadays and there are more audience that are watching these kind of contents on the web. It's no longer weird at all and it has become a norm sport and I guess just some more recognition on it and we'd see more international competitions about arm wrestling. What's weird here is that skinny boys that I've watched are stronger in arm wrestling than of those with huge muscles and biceps.

I genuinely didn't know there were so many league of legends clones. Seems like so many companies have been looking to capture this market and amazingly at least on mobile many of these games seem even better than the original. It's interesting how much of an audience many of these games seem to have in many Asian countries.

But over here they'll be known mostly as league of legends rip offs. Well, interestingly stake and many other bookmakers take bets on several MOBA games now and not just LoL and Dota. Good to see competition but I guess that means no one game is going to be the king of the hill with the biggest attendance and audience as LoL and Dota used to compete with each other for.
