How to Convert American odds to Malaysian odds
To convert American odds to Malaysian odds:
For Positive American Odds, (divide 100 by the American odds) and multiply this by -1. Example for +200 American odds: (100 / 200) * -1 = -0.5
For Negative American Odds, divide 100 by the absolute value of the negative American odds. Example for -200 American odds: 100 / (-200 * -1) = 0.5
American odds and Malaysian odds Explained
Here are the basics of American odds and Malaysian odds.
American Odds
As you'd suspect, American odds are the primary format used in the United States. Odds in this format are expressed as a number greater than or equal to +100 or less than -100.
- American odds greater than +100 are underdogs. The larger the number, the less likely a result is to occur. +110 is a relatively slight underdog with a 47.62% implied probability to win, while +300 odds imply only a 25% chance. You stand to profit $110 if you bet $100 at +110 odds or $300 if you bet $100 at +300 odds.
- American odds less than -100 are favorites. The smaller the number, the higher the implied probability a side has to win. -110 is a slight favorite with a 52.36% implied probability, while -300 implies a 75% chance. You must risk $110 to potentially profit $100 at -110 odds, and you'd have to risk $300 to potentially profit $100 at -300 odds.
- American odds at exactly +100 (or -100) have an implied probability of 50%. A +100 bet pays out even money, so if you bet $100 at +100, you stand to profit $100.
Malaysian Odds
Malaysian odds or Malay odds are greater than or equal to -1 and less than or equal to 1.
- Negative Malay odds are underdogs. The lower the negative odds, the less likely they are to win. For example, -0.9 has an implied probability of 47.37%, and -0.5 has a 33.33% implied probability. To potentially profit $1, you have to risk the absolute value of the negative Malay odds. At -0.4 Malay odds, a winning $0.40 bet would profit $1.
- Positive Malay odds are favorites. The lower the positive odds, the more likely they are to win. 0.9 Malay odds have a 52.63% implied probability, and 0.5 Malay odds have a 66.67% implied probability. Positive Malay odds profit the odds' value for every $1 wagered. 0.4 Malay odds will profit $0.40 for every $1 wagered.
- Malay odds of 1.0 or -1 have a 50% implied probability and will profit $1 for every $1 bet.
