Odds Formats Explained

Decimal Odds
Used in: Europe, Australia, Canada
e.g. 2.50

Total return per unit staked, including stake. Profit = (odds βˆ’ 1) Γ— stake.

Fractional Odds
Used in: UK, Ireland, horse racing
e.g. 3/2

Profit/stake ratio. 3/2 means Β£3 profit per Β£2 staked. Stake returned separately.

American / Moneyline
Used in: United States
e.g. +150 or -200

+150: profit $150 on $100. βˆ’200: stake $200 to win $100. Stake returned on wins.

Implied Probability
Universal β€” shows true likelihood
e.g. 40%

The win probability the odds imply. Includes bookmaker margin so it exceeds 100% summed.

What Is Vig / Juice / Overround?

Bookmakers set odds so that implied probabilities across all outcomes sum to more than 100%. This excess β€” called vig, juice, or overround β€” is their built-in profit margin. A typical two-way market at βˆ’110 / βˆ’110 (American) carries ~4.5% vig. The lower the vig, the better value for bettors.

Each-Way Betting (Horse Racing) Each-way (E/W) betting is a common UK/Irish horse racing bet that is two bets in one: a Win bet and a Place bet of equal stake. If the horse wins, both bets pay out. If it places (finishes 2nd–4th depending on field size), only the Place bet pays, usually at 1/4 or 1/5 of the win odds. Total E/W stake = 2Γ— your unit stake. This makes E/W betting useful in larger fields where a winner is hard to call but a place is likely.

Fair Value vs Bookmaker Odds

If you believe an outcome has a 50% true probability, the fair decimal odds are 2.00. A bookmaker offering 1.90 is pricing in ~5.3% vig. To have a positive expected value, your estimated probability must exceed the implied probability in the odds β€” this gap is called your edge.
