Sports they say,
but gamble they play.
Humans, horses, cars or hounds
contend in me for rounds and rounds.
A two, a three or many can play in me,
but alone I just don't know how it can be.
I can be oval, linear or any shape,
but once you join, do not escape.
Once you do, a greeting is for you,
nothing else but an angry boo.
Now, what am I?

Answer
I'm a race.Racing is a type of sports but can also be used for gambling. Races come in different types, from swimming, to horse-back riding and dogs.
At least two are needed for a race. You can race your own personal best but then that will not look like a race (from the audience's view).
