Betting percentages are often described in assorted different ways, but the commonest is definitely the money line format. These are written as numbers greater than 100, or less than -100.
If the number has a'+' in front of it, it represents the underdog, and shows the amount you would win if you bet $100 and won. As an example, +250 would mean that you would win a profit of $250 if you bet $100 and won the bet. These bets have a high risk/reward because the probabilities of them winning are lower.
For instance, a -200 would mean you would have to bet $200 to win $100 profit. These bets have a little risk/reward, as the chances of them winning are larger.
