We can argue sports betting is about knowledge a person has about sports but at the end of the day, a person who merely goes with favorite, will also get his picks often right. So is sports betting actually about knowledge? Edit: So many people are misunderstanding the word, 'favorite' here. What I meant here is oddmaker's favorite. Suppose, a competition is held between two teams 'A' and 'B' with odds 1.2 for former and 2.0 for latter, then former is favorite, and bettor can bet on this favorite without having iota of knowledge about sports itself and still likely win the bet. I understand the payout will be less, but here we are saying, getting the pick right without having knowledge about sports whatsoever. Hope I have made myself clear enough.

I don't really know if similar question or concerns has been raised before, we often say that we are gamblers but does it mean that anyone who gambles once or twice is a gambler? If no, how long could someone be classified as a gambler or what games that are to be classified as someone gambling.Drop your opinion.

I would love to know your opinion over this question above as it's painful to see that what you do or what gives you joy at times people often  term it as something bad or possibly as an irresponsible people. If it was you, what would you do knowing too well that people who gambles are often seen as useless people and irresponsible people due to what some fellas has presented themselves into while gambling without at least showing any sign of responsibleness. Also, What do you think can be done to see gamblers as a responsible people in our society?
