Sports betting is a generic term which means
betting on pretty much anything that isn't a casino, bingo
or lottery game.
Sportsbetting is extremely popular all over the Western
world, and this isn't surprising when you consider that
almost all popular spectator sports (including football,
basketball, soccer, horse racing, dog racing, baseball,
golf, boxing and tennis) all come under the "sports betting"
banner. Not so long ago, Horse Racing and Greyhound Racing
were considered as separate entities, but now 'The Horses'
and 'The Dogs' have been sucked into the sporting fold.
THE BASICS
Betting on sporting events legally requires opening an account
with a sportsbook maker (referred to simply as a bookmaker
in the UK), a spread betting firm or a betting exchange.
Let's take a brief look at each of these three options so
that you understand their similarities and differences.
