How do odds work? Betting odds explained: Odds are the payout of a winning bet, but also how likely an event is to happen. What do the formats Decimal and Fractional mean?

Why do odds change?

As we have previously described, odds tell you how likely an event will happen. However, this is not the whole story. We look at 4 factors that can influence odds:

Wisdom of the crowds will drive the odds to the true price

Betting trends

Money is the most important factor for a bookmaker. Bookmakers exist to earn money. And they try everything they can for not risking losing money on improperly priced odds. They constantly analyze which participants their customers place their bets on. This even happens completely automatically. If a lot of customers bet on a specific song, it is a hint that customers consider it a good bet – or in other words: the odds of the song are too high, compared to the customer's expectation of payback. Therefore, the bookmakers will automatically lower this song's odds so that the bookmakers do not lose money.

Neighbours

The bookmakers look a lot at the other competing bookmakers' odds. Both to be competitive, but also to read trends. If a neighbour suddenly lowers odds on a particular song, it can either mean that the neighbour's customers have bet more on this song, or maybe the neighbour has some insider information that you don't have. Therefore, it is better to "play safe" and follow the neighbour than risking a loss on a song. This mechanism is often referred to the "Lemming effect".

Historical statistics have a great influence on how the oddsmakers price each participant's song. If a country has been statistically successful at Eurovision, oddsmakers will take this into account in their odds pricing. This is particularly happening in the initial phase, where the song is not even released.

Evaluation

The oddsmakers evaluate each songs' qualities. Is it an objective good song, or do all agree that it is incredibly bad? The judgment can be influenced by many factors, such as the trend of time, what types of songs are suitable for Eurovision?

Decimal Odds

Decimal Odds are most popular in Europe, Australia and Canada, and many think that they're the easiest format to understand. With decimal odds, the figure quoted is the amount that will be paid out if the bet is a winner, relative to your stake.

payout = odds x stake

Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016 had odds 15.

You bet €10 on Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016.

payout = odds x stake =>

payout = 15 x €10 =>

payout = €150

If you bet €10 on Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016, you would get paid €150. EXAMPLEUkraine as winner of Eurovision 2016 had oddsYou beton Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016.If you beton Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016, you would

Fractional Odds

Fractional Odds are popular in United Kingdom and Ireland, and can be a bit tricky to understand and compare. Whenever you see two numbers separated by a slash, i.e. 14/1, this is a fractional odd. Fractional odds allow you to calculate how much money you will win on your bet in comparison to you stake. The number on the left (e.g. 14) is how much you will win. The number on the right is how much you need to stake. As an example, with odds of 14/1, for every €1 you bet, you will win €14.

win = odds x stake

Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016 had odds 14/1.

You bet €10 on Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016.

win = odds x stake =>

win = 14/1 x €10 =>

win = €140

If you bet €10 on Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016, you would win €140. EXAMPLEUkraine as winner of Eurovision 2016 had oddsYou beton Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016.If you beton Ukraine as winner of Eurovision 2016, you would
