I see! Thank you! Explained like that it makes sense! I will try to store this information in my brain hahah

Using that example, if someone bet $100 on Biden, would that mean they get $400?

Edit: no. Would that mean they would profit $80, and end up with $180?

You would end up with 400 assuming the betting companies didn't take commision, but they do.

No you'd end up with 500
