Crossword Genius

Take a chance, girl! (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bet

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'take a chance' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'girl' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for bet that I've seen before include "Money risked on a gamble" , "Wager, gamble" , "22 across will accept one" , "Speculation" , "'Stake, wager (3)'" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
