Hold/Vig Calculator
Calculate the sportsbook's hold (vig) and see the true no-vig fair odds for both sides.
Understanding the Vig
The vig (vigorish) or hold is the sportsbook's built-in profit margin. Standard -110/-110 odds have about 4.5% vig. Lower vig means better value for bettors.
Shop for the Best Lines: Different books have different vig. Finding reduced juice (-105) instead of standard (-110) can significantly improve your long-term results.
