Because the ratio depends on the amount of money which is bet on each team, so it changes all the time.

Not gonna change that.

I thought those figures were the odds. Like how lower the figure, how more a team is projected to win.

Yeah, but in contrast to CB, we don't define the odds, they simply indicate how much money has been bet on each team (and the more there has, the less you will receive if they win), regardless of whether it is likely to win.

Which is a good thing. CB depends on a supervisor's opinion to place odds which is a bit crazy. Since when does one guy speak for the community? Odds should be based on how many people actually vote for a team because aside the fact it gives more realistic prizes - it shows for which team there's more support.

The system is perfect.
Of course the ratio is going to change. The more money people bet on a team, the less money you can win hence the smaller ratio.

this happend to me coz my odds when i bet on the sF v feeble was 2.31 for sF but i got the odds of 1.4, i thought u got the odds that were there when u bet.

so does it mean if u were the 1st to bet on a match you would get the best odds? but then go down to the odds ending?

Yes it does mean that.

If you are first to bet, meaning its 2-2 situation, then the team you bet on would get the least profitable odds.
