Background of the Case:

Like many Brazilians, I've always had an interest in sports, especially football. I grew up watching and 1️⃣ playing the game, and it was only natural that I'd develop a liking for sports betting as well. However, like 1️⃣ many, I was under the impression that sports betting was just another form of gambling or "jogo de azar", as 1️⃣ we call it in Brazil.

Description of the Case:

It wasn't until I did my own research that I discovered the truth. 1️⃣ Sports betting was different from traditional gambling. At least, that's what I found out from various sources, including the results 1️⃣ of Google searches I conducted on the topic. "As apostas esportivas não podem ser consideradas jogos de azar, ao menos 1️⃣ aos olhos da legislação brasileira" (sports bets can't be considered gambling, at least in the eyes of the Brazilian legislation), 1️⃣ I read. Moreover, "A rigor, a Constituição não proíbe o jogo de azar, tanto que conseguimos estabelecer loterias ou títulos 1️⃣ de capitalização, o que não deixa de ser um jogo de azar" (in fact, the Constitution does not forbid gambling, 1️⃣ because we're able to establish state lottery or capitalization bonds, whatever is already a kind of gambling).
