This is because it is safer to risk your money if you know how your predicted team will win than based on random luck alone.

you can never know which team is going to actually win, if it was possible then everyone would be rich

correct, if it can be done then everyone will benefit greatly and I think gambling is fast disappearing because owners of gambling or House do not benefit from such bets. This is something that is very improbable happens, because gambling is something business and all businesses will definitely be looking for profit

Gambling is always a zero sum games, someone's win is always a someone's loss, so there's no way for everyone to benefit from it. Gambling operators always have an edge, to ensure their profit in the long run, they will never abandon in, because it's business.
It's a different scenario in sports betting because there is no house edge, maybe some people are right that sports are rigged in favor of the bookies, but there is really no house edge as a certain gambler has a choice to choose a much bigger or lower odds.

Actually it is not. I used to think it is, but its better for smaller odds. Once you make bets on games at 2 multiplier, the odds are actually much less than 50%, they are more like 30% giving the sportbooks a big house edge. This is also the reason that some of the biggest gambling companies in the world are sportbookies and not other gambling establishments .

In sports betting, knowledge is a must. so if you know who is the better or stronger team there is a possibility that you can win unlike in other gambling games.

The difference with sports betting, which is why it is a better option than other games, is that the edge is variable in sports betting.

On a roulette wheel, the casino knows exactly what the odds of the ball landing on number 7 are, so they pay out less than that.

In sports betting, no one knows exactly what the odds of the giants beating the redskins tomorrow. the house has an edge because they are smart and tell you that they are planning to take a cut out of th emoney coming in, but it is much more likely for a sports line to be wrong than to find a broken roulette wheel in a casino.

I want to know why people always pushing sports betting as a type of gambling that can give the punters the best chance to win? I need your opinion on the subject and hope you guys can share your informative comments here.

Its a good premise I think because sports game results can be so random.   So yea if you are truely skilled in your judgement, you can beat the bookies!    I know this is possible, though most of the time the odds of course will not favour the punter making money.   Its never going to be that way but I kinda agree that sports betting is some of the most enjoyable gambling because the factors are real life, unscripted and beyond the control of of any one entity.

The downside also would be that due to a large human element in the games and outcomes you do possibly introduce the idea of corruption and even fixing.   I think thats rare still but something to keep in mind, I know most sports take this very seriously

knowledge is the most important in gambling. when we know about the sport, we can easily predict the favorites teams and easy to make a profit. but right as you say. if they do not know about the sport, it will still be difficult for them to bet on sports betting. maybe they could have been better in casino or poker games.
It's not about knowing the sport or players as in sports, the best team also loses and with a huge margin. I bet on the team with the max odds and they mostly end up winning rather than losing and rarely they have ended up on the losing side. When in doubt, it's better to check the stats of both the teams and then place a bet.

As a sports gambler I think most of people who join sports betting world are sports followers , and they prefer this kind of gambling because it depends on experience much more than luck , in addition , you may win great amount easily , and you can follow other gamblers who have more experience.

Sports betting is best type of gambling because it's doesn't based on luck. You only need to have good knowledge about sports and. You have to watch lot of competitions and analyze rezilts and odds. It's hard for newbies because they using emotions and sympathy to their favourite teams or athletes while betting.

I love sports betting because I am a big fan of basketball and just now I fine a good tipster who gave me a regular winning bets and that would increase my appreciation with sports betting as when I analyze I can confirm my decision with my tipster. So far I am already back in the winning track.

But you may be partially wrong because if you want to will all your bets on sports only based on knowledge then it is not possible because some time unexpected thing will happen and results may change so we need a some kind of luck even in sports betting to win but knowledge is very important.

Yes you can never make sure if the team you are going to bet is going to have you assurance that you are going to win but it is just becoming better to others.

Because it is just giving you the freedom to choose the team that you think that is going to help your bitcoins grow and win. And it is not just by chance.

And you must do some background checking for the teams involved on that fight.

Because you will only have two teams to choose from the best team or best player if you are confident to their play you can accurately put bet on them as a sure win there would be a big chance for you to win .Sports betting are based on real games and real results .
Gambling house only takes a commissions from earnings of the winners.

Really can't be compared with dice games because sports betting gives us more advantage to win compared to dice games, for serious gamblers they focus more on sports betting because games are so transparent and more entertaining.

For me too, sports betting is more entertaining compared to dice gambling. The possibility of making profit with sports betting is more than dice. That is the reason, I usually prefer to go with sports betting and very rarely I go for dice gambling that is only on automated mode.

Sports betting is far better than slot games so all people like sports betting. In Dice game only luck matter, if you have luck you can able to make a profit in Dice game. But sports betting it is not like this if you know game and player performance you can easily place your bet. And in sports betting winning percentage is high to compare Dice game.

Yes, in sports lot of unexpected results happens. But in sports betting most important is knowledge and there lowest part of luck to win if compare to other types of gambling.
