Not quite wagers. Is tensing the muscles in just the right way to swing a machete to cut something a wager? In some sense yes, but we don’t really think of it that way, and I don’t think we will become more effective from thinking of it that way. We think of it using words like ‘skill’ and ‘tool’. I think it is more effective to talk about how beliefs can be turned into skills than to discuss how skills relate to wagers.
