Bet with fractions of a percentage
April 13, 2010
We let you bet with the odds style of your choice (decimal, fractional, american or percentages) but we set the default display as percentages. The problem is that matching odds between these different display types can lead to some pretty strange percentage odds (such as 17.25%) which were impossible to match with our old slider interface.
In order to make each betting style fair we’ve updated the percentage betting interface. Dragging the slider still jumps in whole numbers but we’ve added an input box next to the slider so you can type in a fraction of a percentage.
We are thinking of changing our default display to a different style, and I’d be interested to hear what you think.
