A quick question, if I may: are the odds inclusive of the sum staked?
O am used to winning bets having the sum staked returned and then the odds on that sum also.

Wrong?
If you bet 5000 on a 2/1 odd and you win, then you have the 5000 returned and a profit of 5000 so you get a total of 10000 back.

I guess it depends on the software of the vbookie forum, anyway, now you know how it is setup here.
if by fractional odds it says 2/1 and you bet 1 then you get 2 + the 1 stake back so 3 total. If you are doing decimal odds (which the site uses) when it says 2.00 that includes stake back, so a bet of 1 returns 2 total.
