Money. Money draws the line between game and gambling, game is something that you just play for fun or satisfaction with no worries about losing money or in pursuit of earning money but in gambling its about earning money, yes there is a fun element to it but making profit and earning money still remains the main goal of gambling.

Simple answer :
Game = no money involved, Gambling = money involved.

I believe more than 90% people in this world know the difference between those two words. So what's the point of this thread if you would mind to share?

Everybody have his way of thinking about this game and gamble. Both have similarity actually gambling is based on different games also. But some games are just for fun and there to entertain themselves. Gambling is a way to make double our amount if we are lucky and make fun while playing these games.

I think the main difference between gambling and game is the driving force behind them. In games, the force that drives you to continue playing is the fact that you're enjoying the game. You're having fun with your friends or family. But in gambling, there's still the essence of fun and enjoyment but you're trying your best to win because of the fact that your money is at risk and you have to win to make money.

The different between gambling and with other games? I think everyone know that who play gambling, Actually we play gambling Because we just invest our money in gambling and want more money in a short time of period. and i believe only a few peoples are here who play gambling for fun. But the other games, we are playing because we really want enjoyment.

I'd say it's pretty simple. If you're finding it hard to differentiate between the two 

then why not just say that:

 Games : No money involved - it's just simply having fun. No stakes. You won't lose any money whether you win or lose.

 Gamble : With money - There's a bet involved. A wager.

* Although it might not fit all scenario, it's still the best analogy I've found.

Game is purely played for fun and time passing or entertaining where you have only purpose and all concentration on enjoyment without any second thought. When money is putted in same game your fun factor doesn't remain same and as your money is at stake. Playing without risk of loosing anything money or anything else is game. This is difference between both near me.

Games purpose is for the players to have fun and it doesn't involve money .
Gamblings purpose is for the player to have fun and at the same time to earn money.
But both can make it's user/s addicted to it tho gambling addiction is much worse than game addiction.

Game is any form of entertainment, that can be competitive, that is fun, and that is without much risk.

Gambling is any form of entertainment, that can be competitive, that is fun, that is full of risk, that can ruin your life, that can drown you in debts, that can lose you your friends, your family, your finger/s (or hand, depends on your bookie), that will rob you of your remaining self-respect and dwindling sanity. It's also highly profitable, which is nice.

Game is an activity that has been made for fun without risk involve. While gambling is a combination of game plus money. You are taking a risk while playing.

It is a game the first time you where introduced to it. Then you enjoy the game betting just a little for fun. Then if you let succumb you it will without hesitation. You will start making big bets to just get back the lost or trying to win more. That is gambling.

You are nearly right but gamble-game= is not nothing, there are some betting against prediction of results, That will not be game but its gambling, But betting is done based on a hunch or guessing. so gamble-money= will not be always game,

In dice sites we are not actually playing a game, we are just triggering an event to get the predefined result. May be we are playing but that's not a game in other sense, So sometimes game and gamble are same and sometimes not.

Yeah game  is dont involved any money but if the game is have a betting features ( like player can bet and if they team or he win he take the price.) considered as a gambling.

[Rubberduckie]

I'm with most the other posters,

A game is a game and as soon as you wager on it then it becomes
gambling on the game.  I know personally I can't watch a boring baseball
game unless I have money on it.
