How Sports Betting Works
Odds are at the heart of every bet. In the UK, they are usually displayed as fractional (e.g. 5/1 or 2/7).
- A £10 bet at 5/1 returns £60 (£50 profit + £10 stake)
- A £10 bet at 2/7 returns £12.86 (£2.86 profit + £10 stake)
You can also switch to decimal odds in your account settings for clarity.
Popular Bet Types
- Singles – One outcome, one result
- Accas – Combine multiple bets for bigger returns
- Handicap Bets – Level the playing field between mismatched teams
- Each-Way Bets – Popular in horse racing (win/place payouts)
- Bet Builder – Create a custom acca within a single match
- In-Play – Bet live as the action unfolds
Example: A £5 four-fold football acca at 10/1 would return £55 if all four teams win.
