3.50 means you get R3.50 back for every R1 staked
1.50 means you get R1.50 back for every R1 staked
Example: R100 bet at 2.50 odds = R250 return (R150 profit + R100 stake back)

Example: R100 bet at 5/2 = R250 profit + R100 stake = R350 total
+150 means you win R150 profit on a R100 bet
-200 means you must bet R200 to win R100 profit
Positive (+) = underdog, Negative (-) = favorite
