1. Chances

   Chances was an Australian evening soap opera, produced from 1991 to 1992. It told the story of the average middle-class Taylor family whose lives are transformed by winning $3 million in the lottery. The series was broadcast by the Nine Network, initially as two one-hour episodes each week. Principal cast members included John Sheerin and Brenda Addie as Dan and Barbara Taylor, Jeremy Sims as their mischievous son Alex, Deborah Kennedy as Dan's sister Connie Reynolds, Tim Robertson as Dan's brother Jack, Anne Grigg as his wife Sarah, and Michael Caton as neighbourhood friend Bill Anderson. Though ostensibly a family-oriented drama, to help ensure the program's success, Channel Nine asked for nude scenes and risqué elements to also be included in the series. Initial publicity for the show focused on the sex angle, and it was for this that Chances was chiefly known.

Examples of chances in a Sentence

1. Harry Kane:

   We created some good chances when we were 1-0 up, maybe we dropped a little too deep and we didn't get enough pressure on the ball, there's a lot we could have done better.

2. Brian Fonseca:

   He's taken three different positions in the last eight months. Wasserman Schultz -- backed by President Obama and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton -- also disagreed with Canova’s suggestion that she did not have the support of black voters in the district. Wasserman cited in part the backing of the Congressional Black Caucus. It’s unclear whether the debate, or the Sanders-fueled donations, will make the difference for Tim Canova. The Tim Canova campaign touted polling released at the end of the Democratic National Convention showed Tim Canova trailing by 8 points, 46-38 percent. This was after she stepped down at the DNC amid a scandal over leaked emails. But Wasserman Schultz is not taking any chances, bringing in heavyweights like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. In some ways, the race is reminiscent of the Sanders-Clinton race. This race has a lot of parallels with the national Democratic primary in that you have a moderate candidate competing against a more progressive candidate.

3. Rory McIlroy:

   To win three times is awesome, i feel like I could have won more but to win the FedEx cup again, to persist the whole way throughout the year, to keep giving Rory McIlroy chances, even when I was getting knocked back and not be denied, I'm very proud of Rory McIlroy.

4. Dave Wang:

   Basically his party, the LDP, is market-friendly, but Suga is not well liked due to the handling of the pandemic, with him stepping down, LDP’s chances of winning (lower house elections later this year) go up, and markets are happier.

5. Goa Kerle:

   We seek success to avoid failure but avoiding failure reduces the chances of success. So, seek success to avoid failure, don't avoid failure to seek success. Because if you avoid failure you will fail to avoid failure.
