Answer:

It means that the person was a gambler.

Explanation:

The line belongs to The Notorious Frog of Calaveras County, a short story written by Mark Twain. It narrates the story of a guy that narrates another story (called <em>a frame story</em>) about a guy that used to bet on everything. The person described in the story takes his actions (betting) to a point where he puts his money on a frog that had been manipulated before the bet. With this phrase, the speaker wants to express that the guy was totally a gambler.

Conditional statement, hypothesis, and conclusion

Another name for an if-then statement is a conditional statement. Every conditional has two parts. The part following if is the hypothesis and the part following then is the conclusion.

A conditional statement is a statement that is usually in the “if-then” form. It is used to express unreal or possible situations. Conditional statements are made up of two parts; the part that follows if (hypothesis or conditional part), and the part that follows then (the main part or conclusion). When writing a conditional statement, the order of arrangement of the two parts is not important but a comma should be used to separate them.
