What is a "stake"?

A stake is the amount of money that a person wagers or risks on a bet or gamble. It represents the player's financial commitment to the outcome of an event, such as a game, race, or sports match. The stake can vary depending on the individual’s preferences or the type of bet being placed. If the bet is successful, the person wins the stake back along with any additional winnings, but if the bet fails, they lose the stake.
