Is the bookmaker's price worth taking?
Compare your bookmaker's odds with our fair odds of 1.66. If they offer more, the bet has value by our numbers; if they offer less, skip it or wait.
Example: your bookmaker offers 1.83 (example odds). A ₦1,000.00 stake returns ₦1,830.00 if it wins, a profit of ₦830.00. Work out your own slip with the payout calculator. How to turn odds into a chance.
