American Odds

Odds format using plus (+) and minus (-) signs, where minus shows how much to bet to win $100, and plus shows how much you win on a $100 bet.

Like miles vs kilometers - Americans use miles, but it's the same distance.

Why it matters

This is the standard format on US sportsbooks. You'll see it everywhere.

How DMP uses this

DMP displays all odds in American format to match US sportsbook standards.

Common mistake

Confusing plus and minus. Minus = favorite (bet more to win $100), Plus = underdog (bet $100 to win more).
