Yes in my eyes betting on sport is gambling, and its in my eyes also officially connected to it due to the fact that you need luck and you are betting on something and on what does not matter in my eyes.
Its all about luck with gambling and if you are betting its gambling and this is no matter what...

You are so right about this, gambling and betting its all the safe, I really think that its the same and that it also will never chance. Its just that you are doing exactly the same as normal gambling if you are asking me. |

But if you are placing a wager on the odds that your pick will win you something then I would consider that as gambling. So is placing it on sports is not different.  |

Maybe you are right... you also wager but it is the completely different way to bet, you bet player's skills,not some mysterious number or something so i still wouldnt compare it to gambling. |

I think it is technically gambling, but it's not as risky as other gambling because you can do research on sports to increase your odds. In other words, it's not completely left to chance like dice and other games are.
I think sports betting is not that good. Although you can win easily if you pick the right team. The odds sometimes only gives half of your bet which is not fair because if you loose all of your bet is taken.  If you're try to win something from your money it is mean a gambling whether you're bet on sports or slot,dice and you bet money in a games. it is considered as a gambling  Yes indeed, it is considered gambling because you are wagering to win something. Although these differs slightly from each other. They are all classified gambling. |

If you buy any company shares for long term perspective then you may not lose all your money in one shot and you will get a chance to withdraw some of your money in trading but in gambling either win or lose at an instant. So gambling and trading are not same. But all investments comes with some kind of risks, and if we don't take risks, then we can't grow our money. |

For me yes. Because I know that the betting is gambling,
betting in any case is a gamble.
So betting in sports is gambling too.

Sure it is, there odds to win at sport betting are 33%, soo you have more chances to win then other casino game or dice. But you are putting your coins into something you believe will bring you profit, but for that you have to risk, to expose your coins into the bet.

For me, no. You can win on betting (sports betting for example) if you have knowledge about it unlike in gambling, it is pure luck for me + house edge always rule.

Betting on sport = gambling?
Please write your mind.
Betting on sport is also a form of gambling. Because there is money involved and you can win or lose. I prefer betting on sports than other gambling because you can study and review every player of a team or every match up and by that you can choose what team to bet that has the highest chance to win. |

betting sport even if you know so much about sports and teams that is always need luck to win maybe not like other games.
so it is a type of gambling because you risk you money to have a chance to win some profit.
but i think it is the easiest game to make profit because there is always matches that have 99% of winning.

As long as whatever you are doing involves a luck, or probability of something happening, then definitely you are gambling. Sports betting is a pure means of betting because whatever choice that you take will depend on chance with odds attached to it.
Moreover betting and gambling are same words, just used for different type of games. In fact you can also call dice as dice betting and sports gambling, both means same : something which needs luck and very little skills. |

in sports there are repeating patterns and trends that make teams win or lose. you can definitely make money if you follow a system and use a good betting software.

Betting on sports games is one sub form of gambling like many different games. I don't see any difference because it in also need luck on your money which was taken risk on. Gambling is specified just to casino related games it can be performed simply on everything between people to people or business to people to win more by guessing or predicting anything.

I think there is a house edge in sports betting and so is in dice betting, so both are typically same. The fact is that sports betting due to having skills involved by bettors have a higher house edge. |

The only different is sport gambling mostly depend on skill if we compare when we play on dice ( depend on house edge )
So you may easier to win through sport gamble but still it have some risk if you're not experienced with sport betting ( better ask someone expert if you want predict EURO match for example )

Well you would say that it is gambling because it requires luck, but investing requires luck too and it's called "investing" and not gambling, and both in investing and sport betting there is a skill that is nothing but studying the performance of the teams, in the case of investing, studying the performance of assets. So investing and betting on sports is the same thing, but one is not considered gambling and other is considered a gamble...
Well, I do not know which type of investment that is which required luck because investment itself means there is very low chances of loosing ( only in rare case company you invest with die ) , anyways gambling is not same as betting, because gambling needs sports knowledge and not just luck. |

For me, Betting in sports is actually a gambling because there is a money involve and when you actually win the game then you will get profit from it right? and then if you lose from betting, you will actually lose money, so that is gambling.  |

I think betting and gambling are two different things .Completely.Here's why.
Betting : Is completely based on some logical aspects .Always ! For example consider two friends betting weather it will rain today.Now if one friend is thoroughly watching news,weather man's report,NASA's climate analysis and analyzing all other relevant data regrading to today's weather, he is more likely to win the bet as he has some kind of background study or patterns .Same goes for sports and other stuff.If someone has great knowledge in football,they are most likely to guess if tonight's match between Manu vs Everton will be won by whom.
Gambling:Based on random events.Completely random.If you have 50 years of expertise playing poker but you still get some shitty cards you are likely to lose. Ofcourse they're always some shady strategies like understand the opponents reactions and stuff but still luck is all you need.Gambling works because people want it to be random,had it never been random we would never call it gambling.
Good Explanations |
