Gambling vs Betting? It is confusing you know, betting is also gambling because in gambling you bet for you to win or lose. I just don't get what you are trying to point out in this post of yours. I think you mean, Gambling vs Betting on sports like prediction stuffs like that, is that it? but still it is also gambling as long as money is involve in return to earn money.
Actually I believe this is the topic for discussing about sports betting versus rest of gambling. Because I do see many people are not agreeing that sports betting is a type of gambling and they are almost treating the sports betting equivalent to trading. So, we just need a discussion to conclude the differences.
Yes actually I also think that games based gambling like sports, skill based based games and multiplayer games are known as gambling.

While pure luck based quick games where you neither can apply skill nor experience is known as betting. For me I love gambling but betting is my option when there is not many sports streaming on television.

The gambling means instant money doubler. And betting means you have to wait for some time to double your money. Both will need investment, but the playing process changes that's it. And I sports betting is depend on your skills but the gambling games depend on luck. End of the day both will give the same result it's loss.
your wrong gambling is not instant money doubler and you're risking your money to lose and for betting gambling is not a hyip that you would wait to get scammed. You dont need investment on gambling you just need a bankroll

Actually gambling is better than HYIP because in gambling you can enjoy yourself and you also have a good chance to win. Investing in HYIP is just like doing things to promote scam and that is not healthy in the community. We nee to be fair working here and we can only do that if we promote legitimate business so in the end bitcoin will be known for making positive things than for illegal activities.

As you said, may be it will be right, but i am not listen from a single person, who said that sports betting is not gambling. Because i see a lot of persons, who believe sports betting is a part of gambling.
Well, in my thinking, it is really impossible thing, that gambling vs betting. Because when we start to play gambling, than we take first step is betting, without betting, gambling can't start.

We all know betting is better then gambling because you have a certain degree of control. I wonder who of you have gone from gambling to only betting now much did your profits increase and what difference does it make ?

I did not understand about this question because I think  gambling and betting the same thing equally in gambling
betting one type of gambling, gambling consists of several types of games one is betting commonly used in sports gambling

If you ask me about betting and some types of gambling I'm more profit from betting but not from winning  bet only profit from the various promotions and contests  Grin
I don't really understand the question either, when you are gambling most of the time you are placing bets so i thought gambling and placing bets would be the same thing.
Sometime i just think people like to describe their gambling as something else rather than just calling it for what it is.

I think the gambling and betting are two things the same. Betting is when you place a bet, and gambling was just a regular game if we do not place a bet. Perhaps the differences seen people is that in gambling, in addition to betting, we also have to play a game and win in order to gain an advantage. While in Betting we just need to place bets and wait for luck to come hope we guess right. But for me gambling and betting are the same.

I think OP misunderstood the word betting and consider it not a gambling. Hahaha. Maybe he is just pertaining sportsbetting to dice game or any other casino games. But choosing on that two. I will definitely love sportsbetting because of skills on sports analysis can gave a higher chance of winning

This is probably the case, we all know that not all member in this forum are native of Enlish language.  That also includes me for it is not my first language.  So there is a probable chance that OP have things in mind but have problem in expressing it due to the fact that translation sometimes fell short of its usage Smiley.
I agree and guess he is pertaining to Bet in sports Betting  and wagering or gambling on dice and other gambling games aside from Sports Betting.
As for me Sports betting is definitely better than other gambling because of the factors that can influence the chance of winning but well house still have a say on it because it is not just win or lose but rather odds and scores of the team are also involved making it much more difficult and more exciting for placing a bet.

Yeah i think your right.
I have never bet on any sports myself but i do think that you have a better chance of winning because there is only 2 teams, although the odds are never appealing to me and i don't really like any sports so that's me out.

This thing really confuses me too because if you are playing gambling you would really need to place bets same as you mentioned,i don't know on what answer would OP want to hear regarding on this question but mostly answer that I have read is almost the same too.They are just the same and theres nothing to compare "betting" is part of gambling since its an act in able to execute it.

That's true in some factors gambling and betting has small variation, but as mentioned the end result will be the same loss whether you do gambling or betting. On the whole gambling needs 50% luck to earn whereas betting needs 20% luck and remaining change happens based upon luck.

While I'm not having a great day with regards to both of them. I'd prefer betting over Gambling. In gambling even though there's some luck factor as well but, it is mostly based on observation and the results are not that random. On the other hand, where the dice sites are trying to use Number generators and trying to achieve true randomness, it is all about luck there.

You prefer betting isn't it gambling too? And your just depend on luck how much time did you actually spent on gambling? I like the way on how you observe the game before making bets, Also im agree with the dice stires where you need luck there but not at all if you know how to analyze and being open minded to that you will know the patern sometimes.

So I assume that this is between Gambling (dice, roulette, slots, poker, blackjack)  and betting definitely means sports betting right?  Else  it will be nonsense because gambling requires bet to be considered one.
I agree that there is more chance of winning in sportsbetting if the person know the game and team who are competing well.  So definitely sports betting is a way to go have a better percentage of winning.

that is just playing with words, don't think too much about it. and who cares what they are called, if you like them then play them and call them blah blah Cheesy
all of these games that has an element of chance in them whether it is dice or sports or poker, and also all of them that have an element of money and chance of losing and winning at the same time is called gambling. that is all there is to it.

In sport betting I think you can minimize your your lose there while in gambling you can't say it because mostly, gamblers became greed in gambling, though in in betting such sports and dice anyhow you can control your lose unlike in some other gambling games.

You can't control dice, you can't control how match will end, you can't control shit in gambling, i can assure you sport bettors can become very greedy. And please next time don't bump 4 months dead topic with 1 year old quote to write such nonsense.

Hey cool down, i dont know why are you getting so angry with his comment , it is the choice of the users to post on which thread and when , why their are so many similar threads are opened but no one is getting angry , if the user have opened a new thread with same topic would have got angry instead you would have started to post the comment.

You cannot control the users posting rights. If the thread is very old then it should have been locked it by the mods so that no one should repost and start it.

Betting enables you to learn the teams as apposed to completely random variables. Random variables do happen in betting but much less and some can be predicted. Like if you bet on motor sports and a certain racer is in bad the rain then maybe not bet on him. But of you do the odds will be bigger.

In my opinion they are both the same, If you bet you are gambling even if you are not betting real money as long as you are betting you are gambling something. I really don't know any difference between the two but the is only my opinion. correct me if i am wrong.
