To make a bet meaning to take a chance on winning. You can use the word bet when you want to wager with someone over something.

"Bet" is used when challenging someone. For example "I bet you can't do this better than I can!"

It means your are making an guess from what you believe. What you think might happen.
So if you believe someone would succeed, let's say football, than you probably say "I bet that person would be great in football". But "bet" is neutral, so you can use it a negative way or a positive way.

I know what does it mean, but what does it mean especially when teenagers use? for example If I said "I'm gonna sleep in band hall instead of going to my class" and someone sat "bet". does it just like "I dare u to do that?"
