I bet or you bet

[lafert]

Which is right in a dialogue?

- That´s the famous actor, so and so
- I bet (or -You bet?)

Thank you.

I would bet on:

You bet...
as it is short for

You can bet on that.

I don't think that I bet would be used here without an ending clause - I bet it was (I'd usually say I'll bet it was); I'll bet you're right.

Heidita is right - you bet is more likely as a response to that statement.

Thank you both. I´m clear on that now.
Is there any way to signal: end of the query?
