#7+ev just think that 2.0 is even, instead of 100(1.00). So +230 would be 3.3.
-ev x the stake by 100, take the number to the tenth spot, divide by 100, move decimal, put a minus on it.
example: 1.3 decimal, 1.3 x 100 = 130, take 30, 100/30 = 3.3 = -330
Decimal just includes the stake, so use 100 for simplicity's sake.

#8Here sponsey fighting with ex wife today
hope this helps
1. Decimal odds will always include the unit stake.
1.38 means you bet $100 - you get back $138 if you win (or u lose $100)
2. The formula is always the same:
original stake x decimal odds = Total amount you get back.
$100 x 1.38 = $138
or
$55 x 2.74 = $150.70Comment -

#11The +ev/-ev concept from Americans is solid, revolutionary...
The ideal odds method would be just using straight up decimals for wager only with -ev/+ev incorporated. So ev (100) would just be 1.00. -2.00 for -200, +2.00 for +200, etc.
American Odds are ok, but get real stupid when something like -10000 really = -100.00 when converting to the exact amount to win.
Fractional Odds are next to retarded. Ok, your odds are 8/13 and you're wagering $78, convert what you will win...
It's simple to think that you're laying $13 for every $8 to win, but still..Last edited by Sunde91; 07-06-10, 07:20 PM.Comment -

#12American viewers are not good with percentages or decimals. If you watch commercials here in the States you will understand. They say this toothpaste is recommended by 7 out of 10 doctors instead of saying by 70% of the doctors surveyed.Comment -

You've can just eyeball 2.00 or higher by converting the 2 into a 1 (i.e., 2.25 = +125, 2.90 - +190, etc...)
If less than 2.00, it;s just 1/decimal amount after the 1. (i.e., 1.45 = 1/.45 = -223, 1.67 = 1/.67 = -150, etc...)Comment -

#21JJ, what a difference in the world. Playing at SBobet.com has the most clean and smooth software that I have ever seen. The site is so easy and clean. It really puts the books that cater to Americans in a whole different league. Just to name a few, William Hill, Paddy Power, Sbobet, sportingbet, Victor Chandler and more. Why is it those books look a hell of a lot better than the ones can uses. They are so much nicer and smoother. It took me 7 hours on the phone, faxing documents, a pain in the culo but i got an account at Sbobet. It's amazing!המוסד

#22I learned decimals in school, they are called simple math, they should be no problem for anyone above 2nd grade
Example: 1x2=2, 5x1.5=7.5 and etc.Comment -

#29I think decimals are by far the best format. You could argue if the stake should be included (I think those without stake are called Malaysian odds) but I have a much better idea of what I will get in return when I bet @ 1.83 than @ -120.
But American odds are still much better than fractional odds. That is just beyond retarded. But then again I have seen Brits saying they were much easier to understand than decimals. Guess it's a question of what you're used to.Last edited by blackf1re; 07-07-10, 11:07 AM.Comment -

#33It's just a choice.
American -120: You bet 120 to win 100
British 8/13: You bet 13 to win 8
Decimal 1.75: You bet 100 to get back 175
If you can't figure out how easy is to use each then you shouldn't be betting. I would say that when betting parlays I find decimal to be the easiest to use to determine payout.Comment -
