when we refer to gambling, we usually refer to activities in casinos, for example poker, slots and other games, because in general gambling is an activity where someone risks something to get money from something that is uncertain and in short term. meanwhile, when we say betting, it usually refers to a sportsbook, where someone has an agreement with the bookmaker to place their predictions on a match, and usually this will involve analysis and later the winner will get money. however, on several occasions, many gamblers incorrectly mention these two things, and say that betting is the same as gambling, yeah that is wrong but usually it is not too much of a problem.

I was today years old when I found out that if betting and gambling isn't exactly the same thing. If you Google the word betting most of the results will be in regards to sports betting. Also Google the word gambling and you will see most results refer to casino games. In my own opinion whether we bet on the outcome of a sports event or we bet on games of luck and skill in the casino, they are both the same thing. Which is why I wonder why there is this distinction between the two? Why can't we say casino betting just as we say sports betting or sports gambling just as we refer to the casino when we talk about gambling? I know it sounds weird saying casino betting or sports gambling but what do you think about this?
Well, I have always believed this two words have a distinction, and I've always tried my best to apply this this differences in my posts and comments, I personally have always believe gambling to be more related to playing casino and slot games, which we do generally refer to as games of luck, or game of chances. While on the other hand, I've always tried to relate anything like betting to sports, price predictions of currencies, like predicting what price bitcoin will be trading at; at a certain period or time, this is betting. So, in essence, or in the nutshell, we can say that betting is when we predict the outcome of a sports match, or just about anything, and stake some money on that our predicted outcome, which we stand to lose just at the end, that thing end up not turning out the way we predicted it. While gambling, we can refer to this as staking on games where we get the result or outcome in real live mode, or in just about a second or two, example, like casino games and slot machines, where I click a button this second, and by next second, we get to know whether we won or not.

To me casino gambling is associated with diverses of gaming activities while sports bets are specifically sport activities which is not associated with other games such as the cards, poker or in general the electronics and the video games including the lottery games in the Casinos games of which it does not determine the winner by the teams as it maybe in the sport games but of personal skills situated on the casino games.

Gambling is all about luck.
Betting is also all about luck.
They both have two sides to their results, it's either you win or you lose, it smells risky all around, so therefore, it is still a gamble.
By the way, what will this differentiate do to gamblers? I don't get, it's not as if there is a strategy to betting or to gambling here that we need to learn, it is simply a waste of time.
It's better to think more about how much you will be willing to lose than win, always risk only what you can afford to lose and that's all.

Lol...You know what? One thing I've learned in life is that, at times, the more you look, the less you see, and the more you seek, the more you confuse yourself. Why not take it simple, for you not to get yourself confused? Next time, I advise you to visit your dictionary for the words that are misleading to you, and not Google to avoid random and unverified teachings, except you would use Google's dictionary, which will still serve the same purpose. Frankly, betting and gambling are the same thing, there can't be a controversy here, because Betting is a form of Gambling. When you gamble, you bet on something, and when you bet on something, you are actually gambling. The two are even more than synonyms, they are the same thing that fits a sentence or write-up differently. Do not let sports betting and casinos deceive you, it's not a big deal to silence the betting in casino labelling. As a matter of fact, gamblers are betting on games of choice in casinos.

I don't want to put so much of things to think of when they're obviously just the same. Whatever term you use, they're both having the same meaning.
So don't stress out with that.
If you say that you're sports gambling, sports betting or casino betting or casino gambling. Do they have the same meaning?
Yes, they do. And that's why it's nonsense to think of their meaning when you actually do them and whatever term you use, you do it.

Once you say gambling its already bounds the word betting because you can play a game without any wages, or you are just an expectation in that game, in terms of betting this could be independent not to have gambling because sometimes betting you are just having a bet without a return this happens but most of the time people doing bet because they want to have a gains against their opponent, seems like those are the difference of those two.

Even in casinos, they use the word bet, like they say no more bets accepted, or please put your bets now.. With sports, that's the same, we do bet but it's on bookie and it's automated, but you are right, it's all the same. OP just trying to make things clear on his mind but since it's both gambling, both also have the same risk. As a matter of fact, gamblers are betting on games of choice in casinos.

Both means that you're wagering and that means gambling, betting, or if there are some other term used for that. Your example is right mate, you bet and casinos use the term and when it's about in general description and explanation of what a gambler should do, they're using the term gambling. And I hope that OP won't get confused with it as there's no need to dig that much with the meaning of both.

Op from my own perspective I will rather consider the difference as a mere semantics because ordinarily in our local settings we see both gambling and betting to mean the same thing because both words are trying to portray same thing .just like when someone is trying to distinguish between indoor and outdoor games , the two here are trying to define sports but both of them are being performed in different places. When you place a bet for the sole purpose of getting something in return is also the same when you gamble in a casino house for the sole purpose of getting something in return.the both talk about trying lucks but the process of achieving it might differ. you're absolutely right. There isn't any big difference between gambling and betting only that one is kind of related to sports betting and the other to casino gambling by the process are all the same and the aim is all centered at trying out your luck to see if your predictions are going to be correct or not. Either you can it gambling or betting, at the end of the day, you will end up placing your money to guarantee that you've actually placed a bet or gambled to win something in return

Often, the "betting" versus "gambling" distinction seems unnecessary. Sports betting seems more methodical, like predicting the winner with data. Casino gaming is luck-based. iIts about risk and reward. Chance always exists.
Presentation makes the difference. "Casino gambling" may seem unsavory. "Sports betting" sounds better - strategic, knowledgeable, almost like investing. However, betting on red or your favorite team is still a gamble.
Stop worrying about language. Both are about excitement, tremendous wins, and losses. "Betting" and "gambling" are important, but smartness and recognizing your limitations are crucial. Being responsible at the casino or watching the game is crucial. Its fun to take risks, right?

I don't think there's much difference between both, because they almost play same roles,you can bet on sports and still gamble on games which are on same vein, nevertheless they are both experiencing predictions and staking.. But I want to say this as I may see it that when you talk about betting it also literally means gambling cause your spending a particular amount you may have for fun or chances of winning but then when you talk about gambling it's the core factor here,and it involves a lot like loosing,lucks,winnings and so on so there's no big deal about any distinction between the both,they are all just a game of excitement and fun.

Betting on a competition is different from gambling in a casino, but both still falls under the same thing to me, they are both called gambling because you can't see what the outcome will be, and you are to use money hoping for the result to be just as you predicted.
This to me feels like something no one should rely on, since you can't always be right you should be more serious with your jobs than to gamble, and risk only what you can afford to lose, gambling only makes sense if you can get fun out of it.
The only reason why i still gamble is because I make some money when I dont expect and I also enjoy some games and they keep me busy on my free hours.

...//:::
Seriously, this actually needs to be explained. The issue begins with the fact that you have flaws with the semantics of the words, and that leads to the grammar itself. Since, in our academic preparation we are taught language, spelling and grammar, and with that having a clear understanding of our language we can understand it. This is an example that you can extend to many activities of daily life, which use similar nouns. Now, I think that's where your confusion comes from, since nouns are accompanied by adjectives to give meaning to the sentence, so one of the reasons why you fall into that elementary school boy confusion is that you didn't go to school or it's a matter of your language or culture. But in any case, the noun casino, or sport becomes an adjective (or vice versa) the moment you use it, depending on how you are expressing yourself. So, in the jargon, or Anglo-Saxon grammar, this differentiation is important and binding to the action in relation to the differentiation of the fact in a casino or sports betting. Hence, its use for grammar or slang in the corresponding niche. I sincerely think that you are not a native speaker of English or your culture uses another type of jargon, it could also be that you do not have the slightest idea of what a chance bet and a sports bet are in their mathematical principles. In short, it makes more sense to have asked the difference between "bettor and gambler", since these in themselves define the previous point, in fact they are similar but very different in the individual as such.

The distinction between gambling and betting often hinges on the level of skill or knowledge involved. Gambling typically involves games of chance, while betting often involves predicting outcomes based on some level of analysis or information, such as in sports betting.

I think the distinction is logical and important for people to be clear on what kind of activity they are going to partake in. You know. There will be people who would not like to completely go in with the gambling budget and gamble all their money away in some casino games like blackjack or slots. I have the idea much of the people who try to avoid casino games do so, because they are aware of their low chances to profit out of them. On the other hand, in betting one is not directly going against the house, so there are more chances to profit out betting, in the case one knows what one is doing and the intuition of one is good enough to increase the changes of success. Whatever the preferences on those topics, it is okey to make a clear distinction. On a side note, I have got more accumulated wager on casino games than sport betting, I never considered myself to be as sharp as others to correctly guess matches. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Gambling and Betting are both different, words but similar. Gambling involves more risk than betting. Gambling involves risking a certain amount on an event which the outcome is unknown (uncertain) without any clue whereas Betting involves risking on an event based on your predictions on odds present and the skill or performance of the team or player.
Gambling involves a wide range of games ( events) mostly poker, casinos, but Betting is specific and relates about a particular game.
Gambling is staking your money and expect to win by chance but in Betting skills are involved, especially in Football Betting we use our skills and also past performance of teams to make our predictions this gives a clear point about what Betting means.

... In my own opinion whether we bet on the outcome of a sports event or we bet on games of luck and skill in the casino, they are both the same thing. Which is why I wonder why there is this distinction between the two? Why can't we say casino betting just as we say sports betting or sports gambling just as we refer to the casino when we talk about gambling? I know it sounds weird saying casino betting or sports gambling but what do you think about this?
It's quite weird to use the terms, 'casino betting or sports gambling' because from my own layman understanding, gambling involves a person's actions of taking risk while betting only involves placing a wager or staking a sum of money all in the hope to make some profit from the outcome of an event that is totally unpredictable. Gambling is more action oriented, hence the risk level involved, whereas, betting is more of a decision based involvement, the result of the outcome has little to do with the amount staked on ones predictions.

It is that from the first moment we are in a casino it is already a decision making, the fact of putting money to play is a decision making under which we know that that money can be lost, and from there we only have to accept what can pass, there is no need to complicate anything, for everything we can do I believe that the best thing is to bet on sports, because in the Lao sports that they know the most they are the ones that win the most, when I bet on big games, when they play in countries, for example for the World Cup, for the Euro Cup, for me all of these are games that Represent high betting rates, what is difficult for me to predict is the final score, I can say who can win, but the score is something for more experts.
