STRAIGHT BETS PAY 10-11 unless posted or specified otherwise on printed media. In the event of a tie in a straight wager, wager is considered “no action” and money is refunded.
All parlays are based on a TRUE ODDS format. This is calculated by multiplying the decimal amount wagered.

5 TEAMS 24.35 - 1
6 TEAMS 47.41 - 1
7 TEAMS 91.42 - 1
8 TEAMS 175.44 - 1
Negative odds (odds with minus sign) are converted in following way; divide 100 with the odd value (for -110 value is 110) and then add 1 to the result.
Example: 1+(100/110) = 1.91
Odds equivalent to one dollar
American odds Decimal odds

-110 1.909
-120 1.833
-130 1.769
-140 1.714
-150 1.667
If the odds are positive (odds with a plus sign) the formula is as follows (divide positive odd value with 100 and then add 1 to the result.
Example: (+110/100) +1 = 2.100
American odds Decimal odds
+105 2.050
+110 2.100
+120 2.200
+130 2.300
+140 2.400
