Average Profit per Bet = Stake × ROI / 100
Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as a good strike rate?
A good strike rate is a function of your average odds. At odds of 2.00, you need above 50% to profit. At odds of 3.00, above 33.3% suffices. The decisive factor is your strike rate measured against the break-even rate.
What is the break-even strike rate?
The break-even rate is the minimum win percentage required to avoid losing money at your average odds. It equals 1 divided by your average decimal odds. At odds of 2.50, the break-even rate is 40%.
What does ROI signify in betting?
Return on Investment (ROI) expresses your profit as a percentage of total amount wagered. A 5% ROI means $5 profit per $100 bet. Any value above 0% indicates profitability.
