A wager with a 1-to-1 return would have 2.00 odds as a $100 risk would yield a $200 return and $100 profit. However due to bookmaker commission two sides of a market with equal odds will each be set between 1.85 and 1.91. This is the house's advantage that needs to be overcome in order to generate a long-term profit.
