Like many Brazilians, I've always had an interest in sports, especially football. I grew up watching and 😄 playing the game, and it was only natural that I'd develop a liking for sports betting as well. However, like 😄 many, I was under the impression that sports betting was just another form of gambling or "jogo de azar", as 😄 we call it in Brazil.

Description of the Case:

It wasn't until I did my own research that I discovered the truth. 😄 Sports betting was different from traditional gambling. At least, that's what I found out from various sources, including the results 😄 of Google searches I conducted on the topic. "As apostas esportivas não podem ser consideradas jogos de azar, ao menos 😄 aos olhos da legislação brasileira" (sports bets can't be considered gambling, at least in the eyes of the Brazilian legislation), 😄 I read. Moreover, "A rigor, a Constituição não proíbe o jogo de azar, tanto que conseguimos estabelecer loterias ou títulos 😄 de capitalização, o que não deixa de ser um jogo de azar" (in fact, the Constitution does not forbid gambling, 😄 because we're able to establish state lottery or capitalization bonds, whatever is already a kind of gambling).
