single bet
One gambling play
A single bet is a wager placed on one selection or outcome, as opposed to combination bets that link multiple selections together.
If the selection wins, the bet pays out; if it loses, the stake is lost.
Singles are the simplest form of betting: I put a single bet on the favorite to win.
