Why do people but bigger bets in sports compared to other type of gambling?

[omonuyak]

I would like to know why people are trusting their luck more in sports gambling compared to other type of games.
Personally, I put bigger bet on sports because I believe I have a little skills that would give me a better chance of winning, but I'm not really serious with sports gambling.

It seem it is very easy to predict winning in sports than any other game and gambling and because of that people likely take big risk compared to other form of gambling.  Football betting makes it easier for the youth to make some money as many of the game can be easily predicted.

sports bet is totally for those people who do really idolize and a big fan of variety of sports because you cannot evenly win at all times by just guessing since you do not know the sports and even the teams who were playing on the game. Sports bet does not momentarily requires strategy as long as you know how the teams play against their opponent, well possibly you have the edge to win with your bet. I found sports really interesting but I do also got interested into that online casino you were saying that have variety of games I want to try.

Well I think generally there are very high number of people who watch sports and who are either a fan of one club or the other.

Anyone who truly watches football and follows matches would find it very easy to predict matches or even tell about his club or others, so most times when there is now an opportunity to predict to win, it is easy to  get many willing to make cash commitment to make prediction.

This is the main reason why I think many would always pick interest in sport betting. As long as anyone fine football interesting, involving in its betting or gambling becomes very easy.

I am sure it is your perception on things and not the reality, most sports bet platform have a limit about the amount of money you can bet every game, but that cannot be said with dice or other gambling, i have seen people rolling with hundreds on bitcoin in dice sites and that cannot be said with any sports sites where people are wagering hundreds of bitcoin in sports. You put bigger bet in sports simply because you think you know that better and it is just a perception and nothing else  .

Correct, its just really a perception if we do try to compare max bet between dice sites and sportsbook, you would really able to see the difference among the two.
People can bet out bigger bets on any platforms or any form of gambling but in terms of max bets then we do already see on who do have the edge.

Harder to explain that are askingfor the matter, I think is people's choices especially they bet huge amount in boxing because they predicting how got the victory by their favorite boxer.

In sports, an individual have the higher percentage of winning if he bet on it considering that he has statistics to base on. If we take boxing as a sample and we have Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao fighting for the second time then majority of the people will put their money on Floyd since he already defeated Pacman. But of course there are other people who have different criteria than mine.

[BossMacko]

Well because if you are into winning in sport gambling through research, analyzing a game, team or an individual players will give you higher chance of winning and because of that you made it on your own research then you're betting big. that is why people bet big in sports gambling than other game.

The OP already answered the main reason why gamblers are putting bigger bets in sports. If you are a die-hard fan of a particular sport, you will be familiar with the individuals and teams comprising that sport. Thru time, you will know their weaknesses and strengths and who have high chance of winning. Gamblers can see their chance in that particular sport, unlike casino games, you are relying mostly in your luck not the knowledge you acquired.

There are 2 main reasons:

1. It is nearly impossible to get cheated because you can't change the game's result which is officially published and widely known.
So you always know your bet and real result.

2. People believe they well understand the topic / can predict the result so they feel this is something they can really control...
So they think their chances are higher...

Simple reason is gamblers specially skilled ones which sports team have higher chance of winning based on statistics unlike on luck based games where you will only rely on your luck

I am a sports bettor and I love to put bigger bets in this form of gambling.
It's still hard to win in gambling but the fact that you can analyze the game, and it's not based on luck alone, this makes this game interesting.
It's challenging for me as a gambler since I've been gambling for many years, yet I still cannot perfect the right formula to win.

I have some winning streak but sometimes losing streak as well, I just hope I end up a winner with proper fun management.

Well i think there are more sports fans than gambling fans out there and sports fans tend to know a lot about the sports they're intersted in. That's they bets made in sporting events are full of confidence, hence the bigger bets.

The bigger chance of winning will bigger in sports betting because if we can get as much information as we can, we can place the right bets in the right teams. That will help us to win the game, but not all gambler can do that because for searching the right information is not easy and we need to search in many places.

And if we have luck, then the chance will be so bigger, and the percentage of the winning will also increase. And that is why we are hard to win in the other games because the other game is purely base of luck and we don't know when the luck comes. The card game is not based on the luck only, but it also bases on the skills so if we can learn the skills plus we have luck, then we will win the game.

I agree with you. People are more involved in sports and they have more knowledge about football for example so it is easier for them to bet in a match because they feel more confident that they are going to win.
Also they not only place bigger bets but also more in terms of the amount.

[Idrisu]

Sport is a bit predictable than other form of game and gambling.  In sport most time we already know the players and we can easily analysis they past performance in other to be able to analyze the current match we are expecting to investing in betting.  Therefore it is more easier to invest huge than any other form of gaming.

Yes i agree with you. Those are precisely the reasons why it is so profitable for some people to do those kind of bets. I think that the same goes with horses.

The outcome could be with some degree of precision depending on the person predicted. Of course some of too dumb to even win in those kind of things but at the end it is incredibly easy to do so when someone wants to improve in it and have a certain level of understanding. Not everybody can do it.

That is the why, i personally don't like those things. They are too easy.

[Lawrenzoo]

i think some people derive so much pleasure watching people fight to win the money they place down on bet, hence they are tempted to place more money so as to gain more people to participate, this could also be one of the reasons more people bet high on sport betting because generally, people like to do things that gives them pleasure and sport betting is definately one of those things.

That is indeed the main reason, but I'm sure some people have different reasons, one of them being those who worry that the house always wins in casino games which usually makes the reason some gamblers switch to sports gambling. Even so, the OP says that he is not too serious about sports gambling which means that the OP still has other games in gambling besides sports gambling.
