The odds of 10/11 are interesting. They’re slightly shorter than ‘Evens’ but not so low that they offer no value.

But how do you work out a bet at those odds?

You’ll often see 10/11 in sporting contests where two teams are evenly matched, particularly in 1 on 1 game like tennis or boxing.

Another situation where you’re likely to see these odds is when a bookmaker has limited information on a team or event.

The smaller the field of runners in a race, the more likely you’ll see short prices.

EXAMPLE 10/11 BET (WIN)

So now we get to work out of the odds. This is actually a very simple maths formula.

The first number (10) is the amount you’ll win from wagering the second number (11).

So for every £11 that you bet, you will get back £10 if your bet wins. You’re getting slightly less back than you risk, but it’s worth ing a winning bet returns your original stake too.

For instance, a £5 winning bet at 10/11 will pay out £4.55 (plus your £5 stake) giving a total return of £9.55. If you increase the stake to £20 you’ll get £38.18 back (includes £20 stake).

Below we have a full list of example returns for 10/11 bets. You can also try our online bet calculator to work out more complex bets like Accumulators and Yankees.
