Why Sports Betting has clear advantages over classical Casino Gambling

Published

on

 

The debate between sports betting and casino gambling continues to rage on. Betting experts, novices and even neutrals have lent their voices to the debate. Sports betting is simply the wagering of money or kind on sport games such as football, tennis, basketball and other conventional sport games. For casino gambling, it is wagering of money or kind on casino games such as slots, blackjack etc.

While many believe that sports betting and casino gambling must involve luck, the reality is that applying proper betting strategies gives one a better chance at winning, irrespective of which approach you end up going with.

Though both forms of gambling have been around for some time, sports betting has experienced a great surge in importance. This is not to say that casino gambling has lost steam or value, the rise of sports betting coincides with the rise of the commercialization of sports. In other words, sports betting is more advantageous today to all the parties involved.

Sports Betting

As the name implies, this is staking your resources on sporting events and games. Though the general nomenclature of betting is staking, deposits, withdrawals, odds and deposits, there are some unique terms used in sports betting compared to casino gambling.

In sports betting, we are more concerned with the results or stats from a sporting event. We take inventory of every detail of the event even the most minute of them. For example, in football there are markets to support number of corner kicks. Though, the more important the detail the higher the odds attached, sports betting on this strength is easier to get wins.

Meanwhile, sports betting is not all roses. Betting on your favorite sports will always be factored by the availability of the event. This implies that as a sports bettor, your wagering will be seasonal and you don’t have the luxury of betting all year long.

Features of Sports Betting

Having discussed this in detail, let us take a look at some key features;

  • Possible change of information in the sports (time and date changes)
  • Some betting sites offer in-game analysis of matches going on
  • Live streaming: Most betting sites offer the option of live streaming to suit live betting.
  • Change of odds during games: This is a common feature, as the odds of games tend to reduce or increase as the match progresses.

 

Casino Gambling

This type of gambling refers to wagering of money or kind on slots, jackpots, roulette and other casino games. Casinos have moved from just being physical to your digital platforms. This opens it to everyone as it was for the high and mighty in the 20th century.

The in-game play is quite dissimilar to that of sports betting, asides from the obvious fact that casino gamblers wager on slots, jackpot and roulette, casino game play is similar to video games. Many gamblers prefer casino because they feel it requires less strategy and more consistency. Though, this is largely true, online casino gambling is known to cause more heartbreaks than sports betting.

For most betting outfits, running an online casino is quite difficult. This is because the betting public would still prefer the physical casino to the online version. Some gamblers have also complained of irregularities in the in-game plays.

Features of Casino Gambling

Having said a thing or two about casino mode of gambling, here are some key features of casino gambling;

  • Strong security protocol: A good online casino should have a very strong website protocol.
  • Reputation: Due to the nature of casino gambling, your casino must be known to be free and fair.
  • Gaming Permit: The casino must possess a license from a betting authority.
  • Progressive Jackpots
  • 3D games.

Why you Should Choose Sports betting over Casino Gambling

We have discussed in details, both sports betting and casino gambling. The earlier sections gave you an overview of the modes of betting and their key features. Today, it is advisable that you go into sports betting as opposed to casino gambling.

While, both can be profitable if mastered to a good extent, it is much easier to understand Sports betting. Here are some good reasons to choose sports betting over casino gambling.

  • Simple Nature: While casino gambling is not so complex, many gamblers have noted in surveys that they found it easier to bet on sports because of their initial understanding of the sport. Sports betting is easier when you bet on what you naturally know about.
  • Opportunity to direct your sporting passion: Many bettors are also sports fans, so sports betting gives you the opportunity to maximize your sporting passion and gives you that extra rush of adrenaline while watching games alongside.
  • Variety of sports: In casino gambling, you have a lesser variety of games to bet on as opposed to sports betting where you have numerous betting options.
  • It is less expensive: On most betting platforms, it is less expensive to bet on sports compared to casino games. Our emphasis is on most platforms, because a few might be different.
  • Sports betting requires less calculations: Contrary to what many casino gamblers believe, sports betting requires less calculations compared to casino. To bet on sports, you only need to have an understanding of the sport and bet on teams with better chances.
