Sports Betting Odds & Payouts

Sportsbook odds at Star Casino Sydney show the implied probability of a result. They also help you work out the potential payout before placing a bet. Check the odds alongside your stake: the displayed price determines how much a winning selection could return. A potential payout is not a guaranteed return.

Shorter odds generally indicate an outcome is considered more likely, with a lower potential return for the same stake. Longer odds indicate a less likely outcome and a higher potential return, but the bet carries more risk. Players can switch between decimal, fractional and American odds display formats. The format changes how the price appears, not the underlying bet or its potential return.
