Sports Betting Guide

Odds formats, margins, and how to read a price before you take it.

Reading the price

Decimal odds are the total return per unit staked, stake included. 2.50 returns 2.50 for every 1.00 risked, so 1.50 of profit.

Margin

Convert every price in a market to an implied probability and add them up. Anything over 100% is the book's margin. Ours sits around 3% on major markets.

Live betting

Prices move with the run of play and are suspended around goals and reviews. A bet placed during suspension is rejected rather than settled at a stale price.

Acca insurance

Build a five-leg accumulator. If exactly one leg loses, the stake comes back as a free bet up to $50.
