Frequently Asked Questions
How do decimal odds work?
Decimal odds show the full return per $1 staked, stake included. So odds of 2.50 hand you back $2.50 for every $1 wagered, which is $1.50 in profit.
How do American odds work?
American odds run on + and - signs. A positive number like +150 shows the profit on a $100 bet. A negative number like -200 shows how much you need to stake to clear $100 in profit.
How do fractional odds work?
Fractional odds such as 3/2 mean $3 in winnings for every $2 you put down. The first figure is your profit, the second is the stake it’s based on.
What does implied probability mean?
Implied probability turns odds into a percentage that reflects how likely the bookmaker rates the outcome. The shorter the odds, the higher that implied probability climbs.
