Sorry for nitpicking, but first sentence should be I'll bet you, not I bet you.

  I think the "I'll bet you..." form is more standard in the US, but saying "I bet you..." is definitely acceptable, and in my experience is actually much more common in some other English-speaking countries (e.g. England itself).

    That's strange. I can't find a single example online where "you" isn't the subject of the bet (for example, I bet you look good on the dance floor).
