    I see many people when mentioning the word "betting" they think this is a game of chance and useless.

    But I personally think that not all bets are the same. To me, sports betting is just a passion or it can be called an interesting thing for people who have a passion for sports. A simple example for you to understand is when you and your friends watch a program about football, you want to bet with your friends on which team will win in the end, and today with the development of the Internet , that has expanded to online sports betting but it is important that you know how to choose suitable, reputable websites and importantly, you must have a passion for sports and sports betting. Have knowledge about the sport you bet on.

    And finally, I hope those who read this article can give me some opinions on this issue? What do you think about my point of view?

    Sports betting is definitely a form of gambling. That said, you’re absolutely right: betting on a team in any sport can also be a passion—or better yet, a more exciting way to enjoy the sport you love. I think gambling becomes a real problem when you start betting too much money and lose track of your limits. Thankfully, there are plenty of platforms designed to help if it ever gets out of hand.

    Considering you will always lose your money in the long run --- yes is it useless ,worthless and meaningless . The house has a built in edge in all sports gambling .Unless you are privy to inside information , you can't win !!!

    In the long run, yes, it's money you end up losing, or rather... money you spend for the fun of playing (as long as you don't go overboard). Then, on those rare occasions when you win, you realize why it felt worth spending your money in the first place :))
