American odds

American odds are a way of displaying betting odds, commonly used in the U.S. They show how much you can win or need to bet, based on a $100 standard.

Key Points:

• Positive Odds (+): Shows how much profit you'd make on a $100 bet.
  • Example: +200 means a $100 bet wins $200 (total payout = $300).
• Negative Odds (-): Shows how much you need to bet to win $100.
  • Example: -150 means you must bet $150 to win $100 (total payout = $250).
