Odds - What are they, and how can I change them?

The odds of a bet indicate how much you'll win if you pick the right choice. It can be presented in 3 different ways. The odds themselves don't change when you change visualization, it's just a different way to represent them.

Decimal Odds

  • Format: Typically shown as a number with one or two decimal points (e.g., 2.50, 1.75)

  • How to Calculate: Multiply your stake by the decimal odds to find your total payout.

    • Example: If you bet 100 SEK at odds of 2.50, your payout would be:
      100 SEK × 2.50 = 250 SEK (including your original stake)

  • What It Means: Decimal odds represent your total return for every Swedish krona bet. Odds of 2.50 mean you win 1.50 SEK for every 1 SEK wagered, plus your original stake back.


American Odds

  • Format: Displayed as either positive or negative numbers (e.g., +200, -150)

  • Positive Odds:
    Show how much profit you'd make on a 1,000 SEK bet.

    • Example: +200 means you'd win 2,000 SEK on a 1,000 SEK bet.

  • Negative Odds:
    Indicate how much you need to bet to win 1,000 SEK.

    • Example: -150 means you must bet 1,500 SEK to win 1,000 SEK.

  • How to Calculate:

    • For positive odds: (Odds ÷ 100) × Stake + Stake

    • For negative odds: (1,000 ÷ Odds) × Stake + Stake


Fractional Odds

  • Format: Expressed as a fraction (e.g., 5/1, 10/3)

  • How to Calculate: The first number (numerator) represents your profit, and the second number (denominator) represents your stake.

  • Example: A bet of 100 SEK at 5/1 means:
    Profit: 100 SEK × 5 = 500 SEK
    Total payout: 500 SEK + 100 SEK = 600 SEK

  • What It Means:

    • 5/1 means you win 5 SEK for every 1 SEK bet

    • 1/1 (even odds) means you double your money


Summary

  • Decimal Odds: Easy to calculate total returns.

  • American Odds: Differentiate between favorites and underdogs; positive and negative formats.

  • Fractional Odds: Traditional format showing profit relative to stake.
