American odds into percentages

I spend way too much time in Excel every time I want to convert odds into percentages, so I'm just going to leave it here for reference. Maybe it will help someone else as lame-brained as me.

=IF(A1=100,0.5,(IF(A1<100,A1/(A1-100),100/(A1+100))))

Whose blog am I reading, anyway?

I'm Terrence, and this is my blog. Who am I?

Well, I am probably best known for playing high-limit hold'em games professionally in the late 2000s. Along the way I managed to win WCOOP and SCOOP titles and achieve some modest success in the WSOP and live poker circuit.

I have also founded and operated customer support organizations for two different poker startups: PokerStars (2002-2004) and Ultimate Poker (2013-2014).

My main hobby and passion is the martial arts that are typically associated with the sport of MMA: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai boxing, western boxing, and wrestling. I have an amateur MMA record of 4-0 and a professional MMA record of 2-0.
