Here are the odds I would have trouble with
0.10 all the way to 0.90
And also these ones too
1.1 all the way up to 1.5, 2.1 up to 2.5 and so on...
But I am pretty sure you would round 1.6 up to 2.1 right?
I am grateful for all the help I can get.
Thanks again!

The decimal system, which is a standard in Europe, differs from the fractional odds used in U.S. racing, in that it includes the payoff. Probably the simplest way to make the conversion to U.S. fractional odds, is to subtract one from the decimal odds -- e.g. 4.5=3.5=7/2.
