Worked example

A -110 / -110 market has a 4.55% hold — the fair odds on both sides are actually +100 (a true 50/50). The 4.55% is the book's built-in edge.

FAQ

What is the vig (or hold)?

It's the sportsbook's commission, built into the odds on both sides so the implied probabilities add up to more than 100%.

Why remove the vig?

Vig-free 'fair' odds are the best estimate of true probability. Comparing them to what another book offers is how you find +EV bets.
