The "(stash = 10)" syntax is only used in the function (or method, in this
case) definition.  It means that "stash" is optional: if no value is
supplied for "stash", then it will be assigned a default value of 10.

So you have choices: all of the following will invoke "betting" with "stash"
having an initial value of 10.
    By value:

    By default:
