Gambler’s chance to double their initial stake (5)

I believe the answer is:

evens

(Other definitions for evens that I've seen before include "straight bet" , "Equal stakes on both sides in bet" , "Exchange, substitute" , "Presses" , "Kind of betting odds on seven" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
