vBookie Guide
For example: The vBookie event is Team Blue V Team Red.

The odds are 10/1 for Team Blue to win and 20/1 for Team Red to win. The odds for a draw are 7/2. The event will look like the following:

Team Blue vs Team Red- 10/1 - (10.00)[H]
Team Blue vs Team Red - 20/1 - (20.00)[A]
Team Blue vs Team Red - 7/2 (3.50)[D/T]

The [H] indicates the home team/first team to show up to win.
The [A] indicates the away team/second team to show up to win
The [D/T] indicates a draw/tie.Sometimes it will say D and other times it will say T.

The fraction number is known as the odds and determines how much you will win if you place a stake on it. If you staked $1 on Team Blue to win, you would win $10 vCash + recieve your $1 stake back if that was the winning bet.

If you placed $1 on a draw/tie then you would win $3.50 + you would recieve your $1 stake.

The value of placing a $1 stake is indicated by the number in brackets.
