Which Sport Has Many Gambling Supporters (State Your Opinion)

[cabalism13]

I'm just wondering, on what sport does have much popularity when it comes to betting. For I have seen even the last pages of this section has sports gambling topics that was killed long time ago and only few remains and actively running. So, I came to observe on which sport do they like the most, or perhaps which sports does have a most number of supporters here and their reason why they love it the most?
Besides, no one can even predict what will be the outcome, it sure is a Lucky guess (I think).

P.S. I have never been into sports betting, because for I'm not enjoying the thing,... I'd rather play dice than just watching them play for my money. But for me I just prefer Basketball(NBA).

First of all, I only watch sports and not betting on sports. I think soccer will have big fans or supporters in around the world because we can see people like to watch a soccer match, especially younger people. In one time of world cup, I see that there are so many girls that have been watched the match at the cafe with their friends and they enjoy to watch. I think the next sports which have many supporters are basketballs because people like to bet in those sports.

Guess here in Europe the most are betting on soccer because basketball isn't here that big like in the USA. In the USA they wont be betting that much on soccer I guess.

[Vaculin]

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, so I think more money are going to that kind of game.
Here's the list that I found.

https://sportsshow.net/top-10-most-popular-sports-in-the-world/

Top 3 are - Soccer / Association Football , Cricket, and Basketball.

Me, I bet on basketball most of the time as this is my favorite game, and I also played it.
Usually people bet on games that they really like as sports betting is really fun.

[sheenshane]

As I had noticed it depends on which country you are, just like basketball and boxing which are very well known in the country of the Philippines and in the US. So, I guess these sports might be triggered to them to join in sport betting those who passionate to watch the sport and bet as well. In some places like India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka they like also cricket and football game. So, at this point, we can measure which countries that has a lot of population and supporters in those kinds of sport betting games online.

I had quick researched and I found these.

[crwth]

This is an interesting topic that I have never thought of until now. It's amazing on how many people would support something that they love. I did a little research just like the other people above me and found out that Football is still the top. I would think that football games are more exposed compared to other sports like boxing. Maybe that's why there are more people supporting it.

P.S. If I could add, maybe another thread would focus on what event are you most likely to bet on. Like the FIFA World Cup or the Super Bowl. Something similar like that. They are on this top list with the most popular betting events [1]. This was updated on February 2019, so it is quite recent.

Football. Most fan base usually has the most bettors.

Some European & South American fellows might feel offended with calling football as soccer. if I am not mistaken, it's only in the US where they really call it soccer because they have their american football.

[Haunebu]

This one is easy. Soccer all the way. I have been betting on different sportsbooks for quite sometime now and I always observe more lines for Soccer when compared to any other sport almost always.

Soccer takes the cake in terms of popularity too followed by Cricket which is the 2nd most popular sport in the world. Betting wise, I tend to do better by betting on Soccer matches(So many types of bets available) when compared to other sports.

[Betwrong]

I have voted for Soccer(Football) and Boxing because those are people bet the most on where I live. But I understand that it's BasketBall, American football and Baseball in America, and probably in other countries more people bet on other sports. I've seen so many sites accepting bets on Cricket so that I think this sport should be added to the list. I think it's possible that more people around the world bet on Cricket rather than on Tennis.

[acroman08]

I think you should add more options to vote on. but for me I think soccer is the most popular sport to bet on since it has
the most popular tournaments(FIFA, UEFA etc...) in the world which fans and non fan of the sport bet on. then basketball
would be second on the list since FIBA is wildly popular worldwide but I think cricket is also a contender for the second place.

In terms of sports gambling, I think soccer is the most popular sport in the world. Other sports, such as basketball, tennis, etc are only popular in certain regions and groups. Soccer is so popular because there are many regular events being held world wide and has been going on for a long time.

[bering]

Soccer i think this kind of sport can be considered as the most popular sport in the world and for sport betting too people mostly often to bets for soccer match so for this vote i would like to pick it as my choose and moreover compare to other sports then soccer have plenty of options to bets such as local league from particular countries and international events such as world cup

[Distinctin]

I like to gamble in basketball though, it's also popular in the world but I know its not the most popular game.
I think the European people loves to gamble soccer football and since the sports betting industry is a big one, they are likely making a lot of money from these people.

To OP, I think you should try sports betting, just bet on the sports that you love so you will have a idea which team or player to bet.
There's a lot of things you need to know if you want to focus on sports betting, but first, you need to know the basics which is easy.
Good thing with crypto gambling is even if you only gamble a small amount, it's possible here, unlike in fiat sports book where you need to transfer money from your bank account and the cost per transaction is relatively high.

Football/Soccer is the biggest sport by far on sportsbooks because as the others have said there's so many leagues from different countries. When one regular season is finished there's another regular season starting on another country plus relegation, promotion and playoff matches if football would be your main sport you'll probably never run out of matches to bet on because of how most of them are offered by sportsbooks.

Even though football is the most gambled sport I still prefer the popular sports from USA because of how many people have discussion between these leagues once it starts.

[Pmalek]

Football/Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. There is no part of the world that doesn't have soccer. That means that there are more soccer fans than fans of any other sport in the world. Taking into account all the marketing and shirt sponsors advertising gambling worldwide I pretty sure that football is the sport most people gamble on.   

[Ucy]

Football(Soccer) is actually huge where I live. Most betting centers always have long queues and large screens for football fans.  But it looks like the betting centers are gradually getting empty. Maybe people have moved to the online betting because the betting companies encourage them more with their adverts

Football is one of the few sports I watch once in a while but I hardly watch any sport these days due to time and probably lost of interest.

[omonuyak]

Maybe because of were, I came from, soccer is the most support in gambling. I don't even gamble or bet in another sport but football and that is because I hardly support other sport or watch them. The most popular sport is football and it is expected that betting companies will take advantage of its popularity to get in gamblers.

[Saisher]

Soccer is not popular here in our country, but boxing is, so I believe boxing has many gamblers here in our country especially if there are big fights that are going to happen, another popular sport here in our country is basketball, but since we have the phenomenal Pacquiao boxing is now considered a popular sport here.

[swogerino]

This is kinda like an easy quesion and I think all will agree that soccer has the most gambling supporters all over the world.The reason is simple and is anytime like a big event like the World Cup you can see the highest numbers of supporters and fans and many of them are gamblers.

[freedomgo]

~snip~

Yeah, this depends per country but most sportsbook offers different sports and most of the lines available are those sports who are very popular all over the world as that way they will be able to gain a lot of gamblers.

In big event like in soccer, NBA, and NFL, there's a lot bet in the sportsbook and that makes them able to operate profitably.
The Global Sports Betting Market is so profitable due to the growing popularity of the games.

The article below would explain how big this industry is and maybe this excludes the crypto sports book as most bets are in fiat sportsbook.
