How the edge is calculated

  1. Get a sharp price. We take Pinnacle's two-sided line (e.g. -104 / -106) on the same game, market and line. Pinnacle takes big limits from sharp bettors, so its price is a strong estimate of the true odds.
  2. Remove the vig. Convert both sides to implied probabilities, then divide each by their sum so they add to 100%. That's the fair probability.
  3. Find the best US price. Compare the same selection at the same line across DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, Fanatics, BetRivers, ESPN BET, Hard Rock Bet and Bally Bet, and take the best price.
  4. Compute EV. EV% = fair probability × decimal odds − 1. We keep edges between 1% and 12% (bigger usually means a stale or wrong line), on games starting in the next 28 hours, with prices updated in the last 90 minutes.
  5. Track it in public. Every published edge goes on the Edge Tracker with its result and closing line value.

This is a math estimate, not a pick or a guarantee. Prices move fast and books may limit accounts. Multiplicative devigging can slightly overrate longshots. 21+ only.
