AN INTRODUCTION TO FIXED ODDS BETTING
Fixed odds betting is the traditional kind of gambling where a bookmaker will offer odds on a specific result in a match or event.
If that outcome occurs, i.e. a horse wins at odds of 10/1, then the bookmaker will pay winnings of 10 x the bet, in addition to the original bet.
So in the above example, a 10 bet on a horse to win at 10/1 would lead to a win of #100, in addition to the yield of the #10 bet to the punter.
But if that outcome does not happen, then the bookmaker wins and also the punter would have lost the 10 bet.
