How to read your result

Expected value is the average net result over many comparable bets if your probability estimate is accurate. It does not predict the result of a single bet.

A $100 stake at +120 with a 50% win probability has an expected net profit of $10 and an expected ROI of 10%.

Formula and assumptions

EV = p × profit if won − (1 − p) × stake. Expected ROI = EV ÷ stake. Probability p is your estimate, not automatically the market’s implied probability. Assumes a win or a loss; no pushes, taxes, fees or promotions.
