The idiom "best bet" is believed to have originated in the late 19th century, with the first recorded use of the phrase found in the novel "The Light that Failed" from 1891. The expression likely evolved from the concept of betting on a horse race, where selecting the best horse to bet on would be the most advantageous choice. Over time, the phrase has come to be used more broadly to refer to the most reliable or favorable course of action in various contexts.

The origin of the idiom "you bet" can be traced back to the early 19th century. It developed from the phrase "you may bet on it," which conveyed a strong assurance or affirmation. Over time, it evolved into the shortened form "you bet." The idiom signifies a confident agreement or affirmation of a statement or proposition.
N/A

The idiom "hedge one's bets" has its origins in the world of gambling, specifically in betting on horse races. It refers to the practice of placing multiple bets on different horses in a race to increase the chances of winning and reduce potential losses. The idea is that if one bet fails, the other bets may still pay off. The term "hedge" in this context suggests the use of a hedge to mark the boundary of the betting area at a racetrack. In contemporary usage, the phrase is used more broadly to indicate that someone is taking precautionary measures or diversifying their options to minimize risk or uncertainty, especially when facing an uncertain outcome.
