Depending on where in the world you make your bets the odds
formats can appear in different ways. You can usually choose which
format you want to use at your own online bookmaker. There are four
main different odds formats that you will see online.
European odds:
This format is also called decimal odds. These are written in a
decimal format for example 1.00, 1.50, 2.75, 5.00, 14.00 etc. The odds
2.75 means that you will win 2.75xstake. So if you bet $100 you will
get 2.75x100 = $275. $275-$100= $175 equals your net profit.
English Odds:
This format is also called fractional odds. The odds are written
in fraction for example 1/2, 1/4, 4/3, 5/2 etc. The odds 4/3 means that
to win 4 you have to stake 3. The odds 4/3 is the same as 2.33 in
decimal format.
American Odds:
This format is usually the most complicated for Europeans. To
explain how this odds format works we will use a basketball game as an
example. The home team has the odds -200 and the away team +150.
Depending on if the odds has a plus or minus in front, it will be
calculated differently. -200 means that you have to stake 200 to win
100. +150 means that if you stake 100 you will win 150.
Asian Odds:
Asian odds works the same way as the European odds with one
exception. They only tell you what the netto profit is. 1.50 in
European odds is the same as 0.5 in Asian odds.
Sure bets is a 100% guaranteed profit and 100% Risk free
betting. You will win every time you place your bets. There is a
guaranteed percentage that you can win each time. You have to place
bets on all possible outcomes, meaning you will have to bet on both the
winner and the loser of the game. If draw is a possible result you will
bet on that as well. Let's explain this with an example.
A tennis match between Rafel Nadal - James Blake (Odds: 1.8 -
3). The best odds offered for Nadal to win is 1.8 and for Blake to win
is 3. When you bet $625 on Nadal to win you will win $1125 (625x1.8)
and then you bet $375 on that Blake will win you will win $1125
(375x3). You have totally invested $1000 (625+375), meaning you won
$125 by betting on both outcomes.
