"You bet" has two uses commonly in conversation. Firstly, as we see in this video, it is used to emphasize a statement or to mean "certainly". So Chandler is telling Ben that he certainly did bring him a present. The second use for "you bet" is when someone thanks you as a reply instead of you're welcome. Both of these uses are considered casual and informal. Ex: A. Are you coming to the party? B. You bet! Ex: A. Thanks for your help. B. You bet. Anytime
