Probability and margins
What is a sportsbook margin?
The margin is the excess above 100% when adding implied probabilities for all outcomes. With Two-Way odds of 1.60 and 2.20, the total is 107.95%, giving a mathematical margin of 7.95%. Odds Universal often uses 108% as a reference, equivalent to an 8% overround.
