My personal take on this one is that sports betting is that it’s skill-based...

I think if I just work on my skills, I can turn a profit eventually, yep, "eventually" is the trick word here. But after more than five years of sports betting, I'm still not making money. Now I'm wondering: is sports betting really about skill, or is it just luck? If it's about skill, maybe I just haven't got what it takes, and I'm just riding on luck.

What do you think about this topic?

Based on your experience, is it primarily luck, or do you still believe it’s skill-based, even if you haven't proven yourself yet?

Sports betting requires skill-based may be true. Because in sports betting we can involve statistical data analysis and understanding of the team or player. We can analyze the conditions and skills of the players. So that analysis, sports knowledge and research can increase the chances of winning in sports betting. But requiring luck-based is still relied on in sports betting and is also very necessary and even the most decisive victory. Because in sports betting a strong team or one with a higher percentage of superiority does not necessarily win. Moreover, sometimes in some sports there is also a score setting so that skill-based no longer affects. So in my opinion sports betting requires 50% skill-based and 50% luck-based.

I will say gambling is more of luck be it skilled base game or pure luck based game. This is why you see that there's no professional in gambling because without luck, you cannot win your bet with all your research and analysis. Predicting the future is the hardest thing to do, because you cannot use past result as a guarantee to judge the future

I agree with you, gambling is definitely completely dependent on luck, in fact, no matter how much research you do before betting, the results will be anything, because the performance of each team is not always the same, and luck will not always be with you. No matter how good a strategy you create, if luck is not with you, you will never win. So if you gamble beyond your means due to overconfidence, and if your luck is not on your side at that time, you will lose it, and you will have to face big problems.

Whether betting or casino games then it will be that highly dependent when it comes to luck factor but the main difference in sports is that you can be able to apply some analysis or in some card games on which it will really be that relevant on making use of this one so that you do have that better chance or having that good odds on winning up the bet on which this will really be that totally different if we do speak about on casino games on which everything will really be that basing up on the code and its been that programmed for the house to win and this is why its really that you should really be able to distinguish when it comes to their main differences.

The key on here is that you do make use of the amount on which you can afford to lose whether you do get involved with casino games or sports betting. So you will be that basing up according into your own preference because not all will really be that the same interest into the games that they are really that getting involved with. Sports betting is highly that needing up that analysis but still luck factor will really be that playing up a major role for you to be able to win up the bet because no matter how good your analysis is but if luck isnt there then it will be useless.
