Gambling is very different from sport activities. Sports game requires a lot, first is physical and it also need strategy to win the game unlike in gamble games, you don't need to exert effort to achieve it but only sitting and watching...
How about the game like chess and esports ? It only requires you to sit and watch too. Imo gambling games that could be near to becoming a sport are card games like poker because i've been seeing some competitive tournaments like wsop.

We can make this happen, but most of all people shouldn't be getting themselves more binded to play gambling as a sources of their profit. That's why most people who think critically doesn't accept this kind of activity a form of recreational activity, besides they've been having an impression of money wasting.
Because gambling doesn't have any other productive benefits to the victim apart from anxiety and depression ? There is no cure to addiction but the addiction itself. Recreational activities do come from a factor that establishes psychological/emotional ways of boycotting addictions but with absolute zero chances.

i think it would not be classified as a recreational activity but rather a hobby. recreational activites are things we do after long weeks of work where we need to be alone or with our someone without stressing our self. gambling is different than other sports but it gives stress. and sports features years of training and physical or mental fitness as to gambling where u can base it on lucks or any rituals u do to get that luck.

You could get gambling recognized as a recreational activity and some point of your life if though it would be pretty tough to do so. You could try to purchase your own uninhabited Private Island and start a civilization there then legalize gambling and make it a regular sport for the people living there. I know it might seems pretty impossible to do though there isn't any global gambling policy that restricts people from making their own gambling laws from outside the government jurisdiction.

It would be very hard since gambling mainly focuses on monetary bets and would make anyone fall to greediness. You can gamble with sports but seldom can you make gambling a sport. The fact that we can't teach or promote gambling to minors tells us a lot about why gambling will remain the way it is now.

Valid point, let's keep gambling as gambling and not any recreational activity. Gambling isn't anything bad for the one who is psyched and have sound understanding but the greedy and unprepared. If there's nothing wrong with gambling then there's no need to change it unless the OP is seeking to suggest gambling is not good and hence the need for an alternative.

We need to accept that natural order of things can't be changed. Gambling was treated as sin or low form of entertainment since the dawn of time. There is no way that people would suddenly change their opinion about gambling and start to respect it.

I guess it's fine if we will consider gambling as a recreational activity but this will be a big debate for those sports man. They may say that gambling shouldn't be considered as it since sports is just a total game of fitness and mind it doesn't have some wager on it. This will be a long discussion.

Recreational activity means where skill and analysis works that is why poker and sports betting is accepted as recreational activity but in gambling like dice game or casino gambling it is purely based on luck and their is not strategy which will give you profit. because in the end the site only wins if you are playing for long term, but in sports betting or poker if you play as per the strategy and analysis in long term you will see that you are in good profit.

Please read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SportAnd then read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GamblingAnd when you do please close this topic. This will be a long discussion.
It shouldn't be. There is really nothing to discuss.

As long as it involves money then can't make it as a recreational activity. Also, it is not good to depend on gambling profits because these games only depend on luck and if you play longer most likely casino is going win. I don't recommend gambling to earn money instead we just need to use it for enjoyment only sometimes

I don't think we can because basically its not. Gambling has a lot of facets that would make it highly unsuitable for people at a younger age. There's a very big difference between gambling and sports and there's a reason why mostly gambling is not allowed for minors. It deals with money and anything that deals with money is very susceptible to both greed and corruption. These are the qualities that sports tend to overcome but gamblig can very well promote

What are you talking about ? promoting gambling to minors, what on earth do you want that,one thing is certain and that is gambling is not a recreational activity as it might stress you out if you are wagging a substantial amount of money.I would rather prefer to wage on smaller bets so that i could enjoy the match as well as win some dime rather than making it any sort of forced activity.

Well I'm playing chess and checkers with a bet, is that gambling? I'm playing basketball with my friends with a bet is that gambling?
What I'm trying to say here is we can bet with our skills and abilities when we are playing a game with bets. For example we always play basketball in highschool every school break then put some money on the game. This bets are being out down to make the game more serious and I think that's a recreational activity.😊

Its just impossible to make gambling as a sport its just because sports is all about determination, physical, use of mind, critical thinking and team effort. Gambling is just use of your luck so its not really using what athletes do. They work hard to win and compete with each other that's why we have competitive sports, only best of the best wins by your skills and training, but gambling? its just really non-sense to have it or categorize it as a sport. I don't believe it will it will happen and it will never be happen, its like an insult to the athletes who work hard to be the best and make the gambling as a sport and test you luck is not really good idea. So for me I don't vote for it. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

People have different goal when it comes to gambling but the fact is most of us are here for money, gambling is an entertainment but it's different from the others because here we have the chance to make money and winning or making money is a way to determine if we are good or not. If this will our recreational activities and we will not worry even if we lose, then it should be a very expensive thing for gamblers.

The first thing to do is plan. Planning makes things clear. We setup the fund, the game to play, people to invite (mostly friends), venue, time, snacks etc. This will literally excite us and look forward to that event. Not only we are having fun but we are establishing a good strong relationship with all of our friends. Bonding time together with friends is really great and this time we do that with gambling game ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Only sportsbetting and poker is sport! Cause you can beat it with the right strategy. But you cant beat dice, slots, roulette and so on. The house wins and if you pla that, you are paying to have fun. This is no work.

There is nothing we can do to make gambling accepted in the same light as sports, the aim of sports is for everyone to have fun while the aim of gambling is to win money. Gambling will always have a permanent stigma attached to it regardless of what we do since it is illegal in a lot of countries, especially for those under 21. Gambling is also looked down upon by most religious groups. I don't really see why you would want to do this @OP, gambling is essentially giving your money away.
