Back to blogHow to Read a Bet Slip
A bet slip is the review screen before a bet is placed. It should be checked carefully because it shows the details that matter.
Selection
The selection is the team, player, market, or outcome chosen.
Odds
The odds show the current price. Odds may change before the bet is confirmed.
Stake
The stake is the amount being risked on the bet.
Possible return
The possible return is not guaranteed. It only shows what the bet would return if it settles successfully.
