# Max Stake Retrieval

This example shows how the maximum acceptable stake for a bet can be retrieved. The Max Stake Request contains a regular ticket, in this case there are three selections within one bet. The ticket itself has not yet been placed, the client wants to know the maximum stake first. The stake value is not relevant here, but it must follow the rules set by the regex. The stake type must be "cash". For details on the stake array, please see the description on the [Ticket Placement Request](/transaction30api/api-description/ticket-json-format-description/ticket-placement-request.md) page.

The maximum stake is returned in the bets array of the Max Stake Response, as the stake of the first bet in the array. In terms of Max stake, the only supported stake type is "cash".<br>

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sportradar.com/mts/transaction-3.0-api/mts-related-transaction-examples/mts-features-examples/max-stake-retrieval.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
