Wager

A wager, also known as action, bet, or stake, is the amount of money placed on the outcome of a casino game or a sports event.

In most casino games, such as poker, wagering takes the form of putting chips into the pot. If the player wins the round, they will (in most cases) be awarded the contents of the pot.

In sports betting, players wager on the outcome of a match and get a payoff if their chosen team wins.

In most games, players get to decide exactly how much they will bet at every given time, provided their bets are within the limits set by the gambling house.

A player who has made a bet and has a stake in its outcome is known as an active player.
