"Sports betting" is the activity of predicting the outcome of sports games by making a wager on the results of a sporting event. The legality of sports betting tends to vary from country to country.
In the United States, for example, "sports betting" is only legal in casinos in Nevada, while in many European countries sports gambling is legal though highly regulated.
Sports betting is generally regarded as a hobby for fans of sports, increasing their interest in particular
sporting events which can benefit the teams, the leagues and the players by creating higher attendance levels to the actual games, and larger television audiences
