In my opinion casino games are more risky than sportbetting. There's a lot of evidence that  casino games are manipulated. While on sportsbetting, analyzing the team or the player can be a success on winning and the results are live.

I agree that casino games are riskier when it comes on comparing them with sports betting. And there's no advantage on it if you want to earn good amount with it. But with sports betting as you said there is a way that you can have some advantage against the house by simply doing analyzing each bets that you will make.
casino games are risky where we totally depend on our luck. while in sports games we have the opportunity to use our  previous experience and skill.

That's the advantage of sports betting and it will depend on how you will use your experience and skills with sports betting. I just know my limitation when it comes to casino bets. i'm choosing the games that I know I can take the chance of winning and I don't want to gamble with my money to the games that I'm sure will only give me lose.

That's what always people think , but the reality it is just same.
When you gamble on sports there is a moment you have to accept the fact that unexpected result happened.
In casino games it has a fixed house edge but in sportsbetting it is changeable, sometimes high more than slot and sometimes so low below 1% better than dice.

Both are risky as you cannot be sure that you will win in either of them as the main factor to win money in gambling is luck and its very simple logic if you are lucky you will win or you will be sitting at loosing end.

They are both risky but in sports betting the risk is lesser. If you are smart enough to do some, analysis before the decision of your bets. In most of the casino best or games it is depending on the games that you are playing, there are some that are good only for luck or they are totally luck based which has higher risk.
no if you really smart and can do math to count how much the edge in sportsbetting ,
you might will have to think many times to start gamble on sports ,
just look between the lines and you will find the number for the edge ,
it gives a lot of benefit for bookmaker ! means has even bigger risk in sportsbetting no matter you have analyzing skills.

Yes you need to adjust with the edge and specifically with the odds per bets. But you need to consider on what bet you are going to excel and just choose the best out of it. And for me, the best thing is that you should really choose only the games that you know how to play and for me I'll go with sports betting and will avoid casino bets.
You can be good at sportsbetting and still lose due to shitty odds, bookmaker cheating and disapperaing in one night. But it's little safer and smarter than casino betting but smart people don't gamble (or they are doing it for fun).

The odds are surely the ones that we need to adjust and compete even though our team won the game but the odds are against to our will. We can't do something about it. That's the only challenge that we need to face when we are going to choose sports gambling instead of going to casino and bet out and try our luck.

you're right. and mostly, the odds are easily analyzed because we have a lot of facts and sratistics to look at and study. of course sometimes upsets happen when the underdog beats the odds but most of the time the odds are pretty accurate

it gives a lot of benefit for bookmaker ! means has even bigger risk in sportsbetting no matter you have analyzing skills.

Knowing the math doesn't assure you that you could win always, maybe sometimes, yes, but always? I don't think so. And for me, they just have the same risk, the only thing where they are different is on how you are going to lose. Also, no matter how much you are good on analyzing things in gambling, you are still going to lose because of the house.
It is not possible to win every single time no matter what you do but the beautiful thing is you don’t have to do it, the only thing you need to do is to win more times than the house edge, so if the house edge is 5% the only thing you need to do to become a winner in the long term is to win more than in the 55% of the time.

Without any doubt the riskier are casino bets, as this is pure luck, while sport bets rely on some external factor.

Yes agree, although both require a luck factor but at casino we really need pure luck. So obviously, if the casino bet is a bet that is more at risk of losing than a bet on sports.

hello,

What is your opinion bout this.

If for example one match of basketball game ratio is 1.05, so it means it's 95% to win.  VS casino game like dice which is also 95% chance to win.
Which one is more risky ?

It is really common that casino bets are the one that are highly risky than sports betting because of the way how casino bets works it is all random and you don't have a little hint in what will be a sure win on your bets because it is base on pure luck, but on sports betting there is an analysis that you can surely check for further hint on what to happen on every game, even though both are risky there is a higher chance that you can win in sports betting.

When it comes with gambling all of gambling if its different or not once it called gambling they just change the name it self it will be risky it depends on how much money you will risk for each just fun and experience only but when you manage to win why not? Right to take another round. Casinos is more risky for me it needs to have identity sometimes not only when about money but you know.

If you are not into odds better not to risk yourselves there. There are some people in real life when it comes to sports betting there might be some plus points or standings just like in this series of NBA. With my friends here, they will also love to choose to gamble with sports as there's no restrictions or some rules to be violated.

I think you are also talking about every type of risky things, that is concerned with winning money, taking a game of chance. We all know that everything has risks and what's riskier, is depending on the odds you are playing for. That's the main factor when you are talking about risk. If you take the same odds whether in sports betting or in casinos, definitely they will have the same chance it's just that sports betting has people, and casinos are computer operated or with a dealer.

I think betting on casinos is riskier, because it is influenced by self-control in casino bets, if bet in sports we can predict before the game even though the chances are very thin but the risk is not too big..

I agree. Gambling is basically a luck game, where we rely heavily on luck to win. But when comparing between casino and spor bet, I agree with you, casino is purely dependent on luck, while sport betting has other factors besides luck that can help us win.

Casino games like dice feature as low as 0.8-1% house edge, meaning your Expected Value would be (-0.8-1%) for every bet. But with activities like sports betting or trading, your expected value depends on how good are you at predicting outcomes, and if you are bad, than your Expected Value can be even low than in casino games. So if you found yourself losing more often then winning, then you probably should quit, or at least analyze your mistakes.

I certainly say that casino bets is more risky than in sports. Why? Because people become more addictive in betting the more they bet bigger amount of money or even property that will lead to nothing in the end. In sports, you can predict at the beginning that you can't continue betting.

There is no difference if you keep talking about luck, because whatever analysis and strategy you use in sports betting, all the calculated points are those of others, so you just rely on luck. Depending on who we prefer to master which skills, on this side I prefer something that is as straightforward as the casino offer, would be more risky for me if involved in sports betting that has a long time analysis.

that's the right thing to do quit while you still have time instead of getting attached and ruined your entire life, both are risky but if you can find your strength and understanding i guess sports betting have some edge comparing to a base luck gambling.

I think casinos are riskier because with sports betting you can gamble before or during the game and so you have a feel of what's happening and which team is likely to win before you place a bet and it runs over a long period of time but with casinos you can loose all at once.
