US Open Futures and Ante Post markets explained

US Open outright betting is by far the most popular US Open futures betting market. Futures markets are those that involve a wager that is contingent on a longer term result over the course of an entire season or tournament, rather than a single match. In general, the highest paying odds for outright and futures betting markets will come before a tournament starts. As we reach the later rounds of the tournament and there are fewer and fewer players remaining, the odds will tighten and pay less for those players in position to win the US Open trophy.

Examples of Men’s US Open outright winner odds expressed in American, Decimal and Fractional formats

For American odds format, there are two sets of expressions to remember, but both involve the figure of NOK 100. First, negative numbers express how much one needs to wager in order to win a profit of NOK 100. However, since there are so many potential winners, odds are rarely below even money, even on the heavy favorites. Most odds will be above even and thus will come as a positive figure, expressing how much potential profit would be returned for a bet of NOK 100. For example, when you see odds of +610 on Roger Federer to win outright, you would need to stake NOK 100 in order to receive a profit of NOK 610, yielding a total return of NOK 710. Note that this use of NOK 100 as an expression of odds pricing is just that, for purposes of expression. It is neither a limit nor a requirement for how much you may wager.

With Decimal odds format, the odds express the full potential amount that will be returned on your wager including the stake amount. For this, simply multiply the Decimal odds by the stake. For example, if Jack Sock is listed at 17.50 to win outright, a NOK 100 bet would return a total of NOK 1750 including your stake, so the potential profit would be NOK 1650.

For Fractional format, the odds express the amount of potential profit that will be returned on a wager. For example, with a wager of NOK 100 and odds of 25/1 on John Isner to win outright (said 20-to-1), one could see a profit of NOK 2,500 (25 divided by 1, multiplied by NOK 100) plus the stake amount for a total potential return of NOK 2,600.
