Convert a price between American, decimal and fractional odds and see the probability it implies, or turn a probability into odds.

Read as American odds: +150

+150 = 2.50 = 6/4 = 40.0%

American

Decimal

Fractional

Implied probability
40.0%

The implied probability includes any margin in the price. A fair price comes from removing it.

How it works

The three formats say the same thing in different ways. Decimal odds are the total return per unit staked, stake included. Fractional odds are the profit against the stake. American odds are the profit on 100 when positive, and the stake needed to win 100 when negative.

Every format converts through decimal odds: +150 is 1 + 150 / 100 = 2.50, −200 is 1 + 100 / 200 = 1.50, and 5/2 is 1 + 5 / 2 = 3.50. The implied probability is one divided by the decimal price.

Type a price in any format: the field says how it read it. A whole number of 100 or more without a sign reads as American odds. Fractions show as the usual quote where there is one (6/4 rather than 3/2).

Worked example

Converting +150 and −200.

  1. A positive American price is the profit on 100: +150 is 1 + 150 / 100 = 2.50 in decimal.
  2. 2.50 in decimal is 6/4 in fractional odds (decimal − 1 = 1.5) and an implied probability of 1 / 2.50 = 40.0%.
  3. A negative American price is the stake needed to win 100: −200 is 1 + 100 / 200 = 1.50.
  4. 1.50 is 1/2 in fractional odds (odds-on) and implies 66.7%.

Questions

What is evens in American and decimal odds?

Evens, or 1/1, is +100 in American odds and 2.00 in decimal odds: a stake wins the same amount again. It implies a 50% chance.

What does odds-on mean?

A price that pays less than the stake in profit: under 2.00 in decimal, a minus sign in American odds and a fraction below 1/1 such as 1/2.

Does the implied probability include the margin?

Yes. A single price includes the book’s margin, so its implied probability is a little higher than the fair chance. The no-vig calculator removes it.
