Format Definitions - Odds and Probabilities

Fractions

Fractional odds show the potential profit relative to the stake. For example, 5/1 means you win €5 for every €1 staked, plus your stake back.

Decimal

Decimal odds represent the total return including your stake. For example, 2.50 means you get €2.50 back for every €1 staked.

American - Moneyline

American odds use positive and negative numbers. -200 means stake €200 to win €100. +150 means win €150 from a €100 stake.

Implied Probability

Implied probability converts odds into a percentage chance of the outcome. Decimal odds of 2.00 imply a 50% chance.

How to Convert Odds and Probabilities - FAQ

To convert odds to probability percentages:

From Decimal: Probability = (1 / Decimal Odds) × 100. Example: 2.00 = (1/2.00) × 100 = 50%
From Fraction: First convert to decimal, then use the decimal formula. Example: 1/1 = 2.00 = 50%
From American: For negative odds: Probability = (Odds / (Odds - 100)) × 100

Divide the numerator by the denominator and add 1. For example, 5/2 = (5 ÷ 2) + 1 = 3.50.

Positive American odds show profit per €100 staked. Negative odds show how much to stake to win €100. For example, +200 means €200 profit on €100 stake, -200 means stake €200 to win €100.

Decimal to Implied Probability

100 ÷ Decimal odds. Example: 3.50 → 28.6% implied probability

Decimal to American

If ≥ 2.0: (Decimal − 1) × 100 (positive). If < 2.0: −100 ÷ (Decimal − 1) (negative). Example: 3.50 → +250. Example: 1.50 → −200.

Common Mistakes When Converting Odds

x
Forgetting the +1 when converting fractional to decimal. 5/2 is NOT 2.5. It is (5÷2)+1 = 3.5. Decimal always includes the returned stake.
x
Confusing negative American odds direction. −200 means the favourite (bet €200 to win €100). +200 means the underdog (bet €100 to win €200).

Always use decimal odds when entering values into matched betting or surebet calculators. Most exchanges already display decimal odds.
