English. Crappy definition: A bet over and above the main bet. Perhaps entry creator meant "over and about the main bet", like when someone says "I bet you 5000 dollars that player D is going to go all-in on the next hand" Dunderdool (talk) 21:21, 19 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

If I didn't know what a side bet was, I certainly wouldn't know from reading our definition. Even Urban Dictionary's definition is better than ours. —Mahāgaja · talk 07:34, 20 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Seems to be plagiarized from Google's dictionary: a bet over and above a main bet, especially on a subsidiary issue.

Or did Google take it from us? They may have a deal with WMF. DCDuring (talk) 00:20, 24 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
