European Price Bets
European Price Bets are similar to Money Lines. These are usually displayed in decimal format and use two formulas to calculate payouts.
European Price Bets above 1.0
(Wager Amount) x (European Price) = Total Payout
European Price Bets below 1.0
(Wager Amount) x (European Price) + Wager Amount = Total Payout
For example, the bettor bets $100 on Manchester City 2.40 to beat Arsenal 0.60. If Manchester City wins, he wins $240. His friend bets $100 on Arsenal. If Arsenal wins, his friend wins $160. The following table displays the results of four different winning European Price bets.

Conversion
Here is the conversion formula for European Price Bets.
Use this formula if the Money Line has a minus sign "-".
European Price = (100 / (Money Line * -1)) + 1
Use this formula if the Money Line has a plus sign "+".
European Price = (Money Line / 100) + 1
The following table displays conversions of Money Lines to European Prices.
| Money Line | European Price | Payout per $100 Bet (+ bet amt) |
| +140 | 2.40 | $240 |
| -200 | 150 | $150 |
| +160 | 2.60 | $260 |
Note: European Prices do not always convert evenly into Money Lines since Money Lines are based on whole numbers.
