    The risk amount to win 100 dollars. In other words you would wager $310 and if the Dodgers won you would receive $410...(risk $310/profit$100)

    What Drew said.

    But you need to read up on how American Odds work if you want to use 5Dimes.

    It's quite a weird system compared to decimal or fractional odds.


    The SBR odds converter will help you work out the equivalent odds. -315 = 1.32 decimal for example.

    Thank you! So, tonight I want to bet like this:
    ML -112 on the Oakland Athletics

    So, in 5Dimes I would input a wager of 112?

    If you input 100, it will automatically make your bet $112 to win $100
