In order to calculate your potential payout you simply multiply your stakes (the amount of money you wagered) by the odds. For example, if you betR$100 on the Pistons beating the Knicks at 2.25 odds, your total potential payout would beR$225 ($100 x 2.25).
The odds indicate how many times your stake will be multiplied in your total payout. For example: AR$100 bet at 1.50 odds will pay out $150 ($50 profit, plus yourR$100 stake).
