[SilverPunk]

Ofcourse its a yes, all betting games is called gambling from the word itself betting or putting a bet to win in a game .
Many games also called as gambling because of betting any amount on it ,but it is not bad at all as long as you can control yourself on amount that you spend on gambling.

For me, both are same things, Because the way is same and give us result it is also same, I mean we use money and it is depend on our luck, many time we lose and some time we win, But the different is people more than play sports betting instead of other gambling, because many people like it than other gambling.

They are not both for me because they are one, what the OP is trying to tell is that sports betting is gambling? Big question for him but actually a simple answer if you do not complicate things. Any game that involves money as bet is always gambling therefore sports betting is gambling.

Yeah that's correct actually sports betting is just one type  of gambling. It's like poker, or dice or lucky 9. Difference is just that sports betting doesn't rely mainly on luck unlike most gambling games but as you've said, anything that has wagers can be considered as gambling

True. Sports betting really doesn't need a luck not like other gambling games. All you have to do is to check stats the desired team that you're going to bet to. Winning percentage is higher for sports betting.

[whizter]

For me of course it's a gambling one since you gamble on your money by betting on an event that could either lead you to win or losses so it's rather a self explanatory one on this case regardless of what some sites might say about it.

yes that is a fact and there is no doubt about this that betting on sports is also gambling, and that is also a fact that every activity in which there is a chance to winning and loosing money without any effort is gambling, therefore sports betting is also a type of betting.

sports betting is my favourite and it makes it fun becasue i can watch some matches and there are different markets to choose from

As long as there is a word 'bet' on it then fact it is a gambling activity. And as long as there is money or bitcoin wagered then that is gambling and that is why many people are preferring to use sports betting as this is one of the best easy type of gambling and at the same time. They are able to support their favorite teams as they bet.

[memii]

Yes , betting on any sports is same as gambling. There is not even little difference between them. You can replace word betting by anything else as long as there will be element of winning/loosing it is gambling as nothing else by any definition. Sports betting is specific form to made it distinguish form other games.

yeah right and with this you  can take advantage of playing much bigger odd and sometimes you can also make some
arb types of bet allowing you to secure winnings since you are betting for both teams.

[Aghaghya]

I have to agree with most people here that both are exactly the same, you place your money on something that is out of your control which might multiply your money or you might lose it all. I see some people say that in sport betting you analyse and what not and it's not purely based on luck which is true and by doing research and analysing the games and players and all that you can maximise your chances of winning but there is still a chance that you might lose, and you can never elevate your chances of winning to a 100% and say you're guaranteed a return therefore it's gambling.

I guess I thought the same as you. Well, sports betting is a kind of gambling that is most in demand by the people, it was because of the way that is very simple and has a better chance to win. if you play this gambling, you just have to bet on the team that you think has a greater strength compared to his opponent, so the opportunities will be even greater winnings

There are two possibilities on considering sports betting is similar to gambling.

When you are approaching sports betting with your luck, then there will not be any difference between sports betting and gambling.

Secondly, if you are using your experience and skill to determine your sports betting choices, you may consider it similar to trading. Because, lot of people are considering trading is also a gambling type.

Sports betting is some kind of gambling that gives you confidence since you can watch the game live, that fact alone will give you more excitement as in the course of the game, there are ups and downs you can witness for the particular team you are betting although the outcome will only be known after the game is finish.

Definitely that's the story behind why we love sports betting, in my journey in the gambling world, my first bet was in sports because I am attracted in sports betting as an sports enthusiast, I cannot describe the feeling when I am gambling as I almost wanna bet on all the games available because I have fun doing it.

Honestly, although in my career I have a big lose but still I can forgo of that since the entertainment value is more worthy to me.

Playing in sports betting  is  really different  from  those   pure luck based  games  like  dice and  slots because in sports  gambling you could actually  see the  game event on  live which  you would  witness  and feel the thrill   of the game  and the winning  bet would  just  be a  bonus if   you  do  tend   to gamble for fun  only. Its also  somehow does  have high chance  of winning   compare to those  other gambling games. Back to topic playing   on sports  is definitely considered as   a   gambling  because  you already bet  on  it with your money.

Sport betting is a form of gambling as you are playing with the odds. That is why in some online casino site where they have live table games and slot machine, they also have sport betting cause it is part of gambling too.

Even the profits is not that much but they needed to attract more players and it will bring popularity with their sites. Sports betting is very popular to most gaamblers.
