Overround and book margin on sports markets

Overround is the sum of implied probabilities on a market minus 100%. Decimal odds O imply 1/O. If a two-way board is 1.91 / 1.91, each side is about 52.4% and the sum is ~104.7% — roughly 4.7% overround. That extra is the book’s structural margin on the price board, not a tip about who wins.

A 1X2 board usually carries more overround than a two-way moneyline because three prices must clear. Asian handicap and totals are still two-way after the line is set, so their overround is comparable to other two-outcome markets — still not zero. Vig (juice) is the same idea expressed as the cost of taking both sides.

We do not publish a live odds feed or a nightly “sharpest book” ranking. Operator extracts on this site are about geo, KYC triggers, and payment rails — not scraped closing lines. When you compare prices, compute overround yourself from the decimals on screen and remember settlement rules still sit in that book’s terms.

Crypto does not delete margin. Funding in USDT, BTC, or ETH pays the same board the fiat balance would on that market. For handicap structure see the Asian handicap guide; for early exit pricing see cashout; for in-play clocks see live-settlement.

How we read terms

Primary source first. For each book we encode a deny list from that book’s own terms, AML page, or restricted-jurisdiction article. Secondary “reviews” are not the list.

How we earn

If you open a sportsbook account through /go, the book may pay us a commission. That is the only money path on this site.

Play within limits

You must be 18 or the legal age where you are, whichever is higher. Betting can be addictive. If it stops being a game, stop.

We may earn a commission if you open an account through our links. It does not change the facts on the page.
