Malaysian odds and American odds Explained

Here are the basics of Malaysian odds and American odds.

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.

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.
