Could be in any context. I do it a little on UFC fights but that’s a relatively low amount and I can afford I to lose any time I do. It seems like it’s becoming a really wide spread problem though, at least in the US. At the same time I don’t see why it should be illegal. Granted I also don’t think any drug should be illegal.

        I’m talking among friends usually only a hundred or two on big fights. I don’t have or use any apps/books. Or sometimes 5-10 per fight if I have a few people over. I also have barely missed any events in years so my bets are pretty educated guesses lol. Again, this is money I can afford to lose and is just between buddies, it’s still gambling/betting though.
