D) It characterizes Smily as a man who is a risk-taker who willing bets on anything and with anyone.

In the Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, the entire story within a story plot revolves around Jim Smiley's character as a bettor. It describes how he will bet on anything no matter the risk. He bets on common things like races and fights as well as whether or not a sick person will get better. He often chooses the underdog to bet on rather than what looks like a sure winner.This shows he takes many risks.
