Definition The honest odds are the odds that you would get if the bookmaker was your friend and he didn`t care about making a profit in the long run. Note: Remember that odds are just a method in which you express probabilities, therefore it doesn`t matter what kind you prefer (UK, US, EU). Whatever you read here works. You just might need to do some extra math to deduce the formulas in your case. In order to help, I will post the equation with percentages as well.

If the bookmaker could handicap events perfectly, with the perfect odds you would break even. You`d stop losing money.

Why you should know this 1.If you don’t, you might start to believe that the risks offered by your bookmaker are appropriately rewarded. 2.Reason #2 3.Reason 3!!! 4.Reason 4… … Capybara (largest rodents in the world)

Let’s take as an example Real Madrid vs Barcelona. We’ll look at the odds at Asian Handicap 0, also known as DNB. On this type of bet you get your stake back if the match ends in a draw.

Let’s say you don’t know any better and you have an account with Ladbrokes. They offer decimal odds 1.77 and 1.98 respectively. This would translate to probabilities of approximately 56.5% and 50.5%.

Let`s ask theintellectual cat!

Basically they’re 1.89 and 2.12, which is a lot higher than what Ladbrokes offered us (1.77 and 1.98 respectively). Considering the power of compound growth that comes with investing, they are unacceptable. Let’s see how we got to this result: As I am quite a gentleman, I’ve converted them to percentages as well. You can notice that they total 100%, which makes sense. You can deduce the formula for decimal odds yourself. I know I’ve said that I’ll also write the equation for percentages, but I lied. Instead, I’ll start you on the path to discovering it: 56.5%……107% ?……100% If you prefer other type of odds instead of decimal, here’s more starting help:
