I often encounter facebook groups or websites about soccer betting gambling, that is the reason why I have soccer,
ranked second is basketball, after that the others, I don't know why, but maybe this happened because of the crowded environment that formed when it entered the quarter-finals. even when the competition starts.

This question actually depends on the country on which sport they support. To give you a specific example, the Philippines is leaning towards the sport basketball and boxing, as compared to other countries who gamble more on football or any other sport beside the ones I mentioned.

Another thing also to consider is the amount of people who participate in such sport. Football has been famously known for supporters all throughout the world and the number of fans compared to any other sport is significantly higher. These facts alone conclude that football may be the most famous in both sport and choice for gambling.


Phililippines and other SEA countries are just small compared to EU and no question that soccer would really have that vast of supporters or enthusiast.

When it comes to gambling selection there were more lots of options to take with Soccer unlike on Basketball and other in line sports with it.

That is usually the case in PH because we are more of basketball enthusiast here. Football is not that hype as we all know that these sports can't just be played at the backyards or streets. Even with the popularity of Azkals PH in Asian tournament, it didn't really give much of a boost in terms of football popularity in PH.
<...>

You’re right. It seem to be that PH has the finest or more on in sports of basketball that’s why it’s my first guess that slipped in my mind. Me in myself I don’t know that football has the most popular sports in the world this thread just happen to help me and make myself to do research on it.

One also reason why football soccer isn’t popular in PH is lacking of soccer field to played with. Like what you’ve just said we can’t play football (soccer) in the backyards or streets. So yeah, atleast I know now what’s the most popular sports. Tongue
That there is no soccer hype in PH does not me you are blinded to the fact soccer is well dignified worldwide. The only game that brings the world generally together is soccer, how can you not be aware that football is the most popular sports in the world? Have you heard of fans calling themselves a particular club member and they get the jerseys and other items for recognition from other member when they meet outside. This is how big and united soccer supporters.

I have long known that soccer has the most supporters, it also has more players compared to other betting games and didn’t need the thread to make me understand.

I'm just wondering, on what sport does have much popularity when it comes to betting. For I have seen even the last pages of this section has sports gambling topics that was killed long time ago and only few remains and actively running. So, I came to observe on which sport do they like the most, or perhaps which sports does have a most number of supporters here and their reason why they love it the most?
Besides, no one can even predict what will be the outcome, it sure is a Lucky guess (I think).

P.S. I have never been into sports betting, because for I'm not enjoying the thing,... I'd rather play dice than just watching them play for my money. But for me I just prefer Basketball(NBA).
Most people prefer soccer, I think the biggest sports gambling is soccer because soccer is much preferred. many sites offer bets such as guess what. but I don't like online but offline, that's more certain.

It's all the same i think. Well for the three top vote getters that is. A gambler bets on anything that they can place a bet on. Soccer is a favorite sport among the three but when it comes to gambling, basketball and boxing isn't far behind. You select 1 winner between two opposing sides. And i prefer that rather than watching dumbly on dice.

But the other surprising is boxing is not on the top 10 list of the image, but that is okay. I think it is hard to compete with soccer as many people are always waiting for the next match because they are curious about which team will be the winner.

The stats are based on the amount of money circulates in gambling on those sports.

Boxing is not included because matches are not regular. In a span of a year, I think only 3-5 big events happen or maybe even lower than 3. That's why even one event is sold out and gained lots of revenue, it can't match the whole amount involves in soccer or other sports.

So that is why boxing is not included in that list, thank you for giving the info to me.

But still, boxing can be a choice for gamblers to place the bets. Maybe boxing needs to find the other big player like Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, or Muhammed Ali to make boxing popular again. I remember in the old-time, when Mike Tyson matches, in my house, we watched the events and will be happy to see Tyson win.

Well for me not because soccer/football is the most popular sports in the world meaning this have the most gambling supporters

Remember that supporters are there and counted as fans and not as bettors every game .
yes  . football is popular because everyone sees it as a ball game and people play it but if you will read the title of this thread , it says supporters not bettors .

Maybe it’s Basketball whos very more gambling supporters.by experience as well
yes because teams or players on basketball are more popular than on other sports .  i think every people on ever country , knows atleast one team or player on basketball  and also , there are more kinds of betting related to basketball  .

People unanimously vote for soccer for obvious, there are billions of people in this sports and it's the world's most popular sports, and there are a lot of betting sites for soccer, the next one is boxing it's not really that very popular but there are so many gamblers are very much into betting boxing.

Soccer is even gaining popularity in America as baseball is starting to die.  Football / soccer truly is the global sport.

Its amazing how many fans Cricket has, this has to be related to the British empire even though its been gone for most of the last hundred years its left behind a heck of a legacy in cultural artifacts left behind like this.    Its a good thing, it brings together various countries that might not be on the best of terms otherwise and I'd rather see competition on the playing field then political rhetoric and strife.

my favorite team is Chelsea.

So many supporters these clubs have which is fair I guess when considering their teams take on alot of global talent also.

I've only watched a few cricket matches in my life and I am not a huge fan of it,  I guess I wasn't exposed to it much as a child so that may be the reasoning.
Cricket is the best game that gives us chance to make prediction because of good  value in gambling there are so many more games but as you said you have no interest in cricket that’s why better for you to chose Dice or any other good game like cards and foot ball etc gaming has multi options for you so you can choose the best one.

Apparently, football has the most gambling supporters.
This stems from the fact that there are so many games almost every day and so many different betting opportunities.
As long as online gambling casinos became popular the gamblers segment increased significantly.

Remember that supporters are there and counted as fans and not as bettors every game .just like tennis when there are so many fans around the globe but only fewer who’s getting into betting(well I assumed it was because of their decent supporters)

Maybe it’s Basketball whos very more gambling supporters.by experience as well

I believe its lucrativeness is probably the reason why it has a lot of supporters like it has and another thing I see is that soccer is a game that is widely accepted. There are some games that are not common in some parts of the world because it is not practiced. For instance, basketball, there are a lot of countries where basketball is not being played because of height barrier. It’s not like they don’t like the game but because basketball is better for those with a certain height and this is not the same in soccer.

Soccer is played in all parts of the world and this is the reason there is world cup and whenever it is being played, it seems as though everyone in the world are all seated to watch.

Football and Cricket being the most famous sports have not been added in the list of options. I mostly follow only cricket and I am aware of how many bets are placed on the games and especially the WC matches. In my country, cricket has another level of crazy fans while boxing is the next craze here. I did not know people bet on basketball games as well.

Weird that you haven't included horse racing in your list.
I mean, that sport's existence is basically tied to gambling, though it's obviously not as popular as football in general.

The poll result just says what is really popular around the world. Basketball ofcourse would be one of it because its mechanics is easy to understand and its not difficult to play. Soccer on the other hand is very popular on western countries if I'm not mistaken especially Brazil. Those are fun and enjoying to watch making it at the top sports in gambling industry.

I think we could predict where the basketball fans could be much and I think from the US but talking about soccer, it is not only Brazil that likes soccer. Lately, soccer betting shows that it cuts across the wide range of globe. So many nations are partakers of soccer so also the citizens stake money on betting site.

It depends on the area or country like for example in our place the common sports that has a lot of gambling supporters are Basketball and Boxing, whenever there's a boxing match or if there's a new seasons for NBA then my co workers or even my friends bet on their favorite teams. I guess these are the games that is very popular to bet on in our country.
Tennis and Soccer on the other hand, is not that popular in our area, though a few watches it but it is not a common game where they bet on unlike basketball and boxing, they prefer just watching soccer and tennis instead of betting on them.

Soccer might be only in the U.S but football is basically everywhere in the world. Though I am not against sports betting, but I never enjoy this thing too. IMHO the sports betting lead to match-fixing which will ruin the game. But many people enjoy sport-betting just for fun too.

As a football fan, it’s obvious to me that football is a leader in betting. At the same time, football is a leader not only in Europe but throughout the world.
