What is sports betting?

Sports betting is the act of placing a wager on the outcome of a particular sports event. This could include anything from traditional team sports like football or basketball, to individual sports like horse racing or tennis. Bettors place their bets with a bookmaker or sportsbook, and may choose from a variety of different types of bets, such as a moneyline bet (picking the winner of a game or match), a point spread bet (betting against the spread or margin of victory), or an over/under bet (predicting whether the total number of points or goals scored will be higher or lower than a set number). Sports betting is a popular form of gambling and can be enjoyed by casual fans and serious bettors alike.
