Return Calculation Examples (Decimal Odds)

8www uses decimal odds. The calculations below are examples only — actual odds vary depending on the match and situation.

Example — Match Winner Bet
৳৫০০ × ১.৯০ = ৳৯৫০

Say you place ৳৫০০ at odds of ১.৯০. If you win, your total return is ৳৯৫০ — meaning your profit is ৳৪৫০. The decimal odds figure represents the full return including your original stake.

Formula: Total Return = Stake Amount × Decimal Odds
Net Profit: Total Return − Original Stake

Example — Top Batter Bet
৳৩০০ × ৪.৫০ = ৳১,৩৫০

With the same ৳৩০০ stake at odds of ৪.৫০, a win returns ৳১,৩৫০ — a profit of ৳১,০৫০. Odds are generally higher in the Top Batter market because picking the right player is not easy.

Keep in mind: Higher odds mean higher risk. Check team news and pitch reports before placing your bet. These figures are for illustration purposes only.
