Reading decimal odds
Decimal odds show the payout for every RM1, including your stake. At odds of 1.65, a winning RM10 bet pays RM16.50, a profit of RM6.50. The implied probability is 1 divided by the odds: 1.65 means about 61%. When you add up the probabilities of all three 1X2 outcomes, the total is over 100%. That excess is the bookmaker's margin.
Handicap (HDP)
Asian handicap gives the weaker team a virtual goal start so both sides are close to even. At a -0.5 handicap, the favourite must win. At -1, a one-goal win returns your stake. Our turnover article explains why low-odds bets may not count towards a bonus.
