==============
Odds converter
==============

The odds converter converts between the following types of odds:

- Decimal (eg, 3, 4.25, 7.635)
- Fractional (eg, 10/11, 7/4, 11/1)
- Moneyline, or American (eg, +200, -150, +482)
- Probability (eg, 0.5, 0.3333, 0.25)

BetMachine converts to "standard" fractional odds used by (UK) bookmakers - for example, decimal odds of 2.5 will be rendered as 6/4, rather than 3/2. When decimal or moneyline odds are not an exact match for any standard fractional odds the nearest standard fractional odds will be displayed.

==================
Returns calculator
==================

The returns calculator works out how much your bookmaker (with any luck) owes you. Its emphasis is on accumulator bets and its based on UK settling rules.

Based on your unit stake, and whether the bet is win-only or each-way, a report is generated for:

- Singles
- Accumulator
- Full cover (with and without singles)

The selections within the bet(s) can be defined in terms of:

- Odds
- Place terms (eg, 1/4)
- Rule 4 deduction, in pence/percentage (e.g. 10)
- Number of selections that tied for the win/place
- Outcome

===================
Dutching calculator
===================

Dutching (named after New York gangster "Dutch" Schultz) involves mitigating the risk of losing by backing more than one selection in a race or event.

The process involves calculating the stake to be placed on each selection, given the odds, so that the same amount of money is returned regardless of which selection wins — assuming that one of them does actually win!

BetMachine can calculate the individual selection stakes based on:

- total available stake; or
- desired profit.
