On the latter there is the shy phrase TO PUT(or SET)AT HAZARD; I say ‘shy’ because it rarely shows its face nowadays. But I like it nonetheless.

And on the former, equally demure, there are HAPLESS and MAYHAP, and I particularly like the north England dialect form ‘APPEN as in “‘appen you’ll be at t’ pub tonight?”. Rising inflexion at the end rather then anything else establishes that it’s a question. Here HAPPEN is really ‘maybe’ but in my made-up question it becomes almost an auxiliary verb rather than adverb: It’s certainly not the verb ‘to happen’ in this context. Compare it with “Will you be …” or, to link it with its origin, “Is here a chance you’ll be …”

The charm of words enchants as ever.
