What are decimal odds?

Decimal odds or continental odds are widely used in Europe, Canada and Australia. The big difference between fraction odds and decimal odds is that the person betting has already paid out his/her stake, and if he/she should then win they would receive the stake back as well as the winnings.

So to put it simply, if something was 20/1 in fractions, the decimal odds would then be 21.0. If the fractioned odds are 1/20 then the decimal odds would be 1.05, when the odds are even money, they are quoted as 2.

Other Odds that Bet 365 Offer

Along with the two forms of betting odds that we have briefly spoken about, bet365 also offers one more variety. This third option is called either Moneyline or American odds. This is also another simple explanation; these odds are typically used for Moneyline betting.

When the number is positive, it would represent the amount that would be won from a bet of $100. For example if something was +100 and you placed a $100 bet on this, you would win $200. Fractioned odds of 20/1 would be simply +2000. However, when the number is negative, it would refer to the amount that you would need to wager to win $100.

It goes without saying that fractional odds are also available. If you are not familiar with these odds, it is very simple. If an odd was 2/1, the number on the left represents how much the punter will win if they stake the number on the right.
