It's Your Bet is an American game show which aired in syndication (mostly NBC owned-and-operated stations) from 1969-1973. The series was a revised version of the NBC game I'll Bet, which aired for six months in 1965. Both I'll Bet and It's Your Bet were produced by Ralph Andrews.
During the four-year run of It's Your Bet the series had four hosts. Hal March (best known for The $64,000 Question) hosted for the first few months. When health problems forced him to step down in late 1969 (he died in January 1970), actor Dick Gautier took over and hosted through the end of the 1970–1971 season.
Tom Kennedy moderated for the following year (1971–1972), followed by comedian Lyle Waggoner (The Carol Burnett Show) for the final season. Interestingly, Kennedy had previously guest-hosted for March (watch below) for a week which included Waggoner and his wife as guests.
