Decimal odds

Decimal odds of 1.90 turn an RM100 stake into an RM190 total return, including the stake (RM90 profit).

Hong Kong odds

Hong Kong odds show profit per RM1 staked. 0.90 means an RM100 stake wins RM90 profit. Add 1 to get decimal odds.

Malay odds

Malay odds run from -1 to 1. A positive figure such as 0.90 works like Hong Kong odds: RM100 wins RM90. A negative figure such as -0.80 means you risk RM80 to win RM100.
