Definition of Odds in statistics

[math]\displaystyle{ Odds=\frac{probability\ that\ the\ outcome\ occurs}{probability\ that\ the\ outcome\ does\ not\ occur} }[/math]

Example of a horse rase

Assumption

In order to simplify, the bookmaker in the following scenario does not charge any betting fees

A race that 5 horses start and 10 bettors bet

Here is a horse race that 5 horses start and 20 people — 20 bettors — bet each of 5 horses.

Names of horses are A, B, C, D and E.

Horses
A
B
C
D
E

Each bettor bets $1 for one horse. All bet money are pooled ($20 pooled in total) and will be redistributed for bettors who bet a winning horse.

Now each all bettors bet as following:

Horses Bettors
A 10 bettors
B 5 bettors
C 3 bettors
D 2 bettors
E 1 bettor

Results

If each horse wins, pooled $20 are redistributed as following:

Horses Bettors If the horse wins Calculation
A 10 bettors $20 into 10 bettors $20 ÷ 10 = $2
B 5 bettors $20 into 5 bettors $20 ÷ 5 = $4
C 3 bettors $20 into 3 bettors $20 ÷ 3 = $6.66..
D 2 bettors $20 into 2 bettors $20 ÷ 2 = $10
E 1 bettor $20 into 1 bettor $20 ÷ 1 = $20

From a view point of winning probabilities

Assumed that predictions by bettors were as precise as God, a winning probability of each horse is as follows:

Horses Bettors If the horse wins Calculation Winning probability
A 10 bettors $20 into 10 bettors $20 ÷ 10 = $2 10/20
B 5 bettors $20 into 5 bettors $20 ÷ 5 = $4 5/20
C 3 bettors $20 into 3 bettors $20 ÷ 3 = $6.66.. 3/20
D 2 bettors $20 into 2 bettors $20 ÷ 2 = $10 2/20
E 1 bettor $20 into 1 bettor $20 ÷ 1 = $20 1/20
