Odds (bets)
What does Odds mean in betting?
Odds are the prices attached to a bet. They show how much a player can receive if the outcome lands and how the market rates the chance of that outcome.
How does it work?
If the odds are high, the possible return is larger, but the outcome is usually seen as less likely. If the odds are low, the return is smaller, but the selection is viewed as stronger by the market. In simple terms, odds combine two things at once: the price of the bet and the market’s view of probability. This is one of the most basic terms in betting, because without odds, the bet itself does not really exist.
