    Line conversion
    Checking wiki about the topic I found what I believe is something crucial to substain statistical order while line shopping. Nowadays the maket's open on a very wide variety, this includes the three basic types of lines that are the Fractional, the Decimal and the American. Some of you fellows may take advantage of this and will therefore be able to put some more money in the very few safe places you have outside of the Americas.

    To convert fractional odds to decimal, you take the fractional number and convert it to decimal by doing the division, then you add 1. For example, the 4/1 fractional odds shown above is the same as 5 in decimal odds. While 1/4 would be quoted as 1.25.
    To convert moneyline to decimal odds it depends on whether it's positive or negative. If it's positive, you divide by 100 and add 1. +400 moneyline is the same as 5.0 in decimal odds. If the moneyline is negative, to convert, first remove the minus sign, then instead of dividing by 100, you take 100 and divide it by the moneyline amount, then you add 1. For example, -400 moneyline is 100/400 + 1 in decimal, or 1.25
