Six odds formats and how to convert them quickly
In this articleDecimal and Hong Kong
The same price can be written in six different ways. The website lets you switch formats in the account menu; this article helps you understand the numbers behind them.
Decimal and Hong Kong
Decimal odds show the total return for every $1 staked, including your stake (1.90). Hong Kong odds count only the profit: 1.90 decimal = 0.90 Hong Kong.
Malay and Indonesian
Malay odds keep the Hong Kong price when it is ≤ 1 and turn negative when it is above 1 (2.40 → −0.71). Indonesian odds do the opposite: they stay the same when ≥ 1 and turn negative below 1 (1.80 → −1.25).
US and fractional
US odds (also called American or moneyline odds) multiply the Indonesian price by 100 (+140, −125). Fractional odds express the profit as a ratio, for example 2.75 decimal = 7/4.
| Decimal | Hong Kong | Malay | Indonesian | US | Fractional |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.80 | 0.80 | 0.80 | −1.25 | −125 | 4/5 |
| 2.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | +100 | 1/1 |
| 2.75 | 1.75 | −0.57 | 1.75 | +175 | 7/4 |
