| Win rate | Return on stake |
|---|---|
| 49% | -0.5% |
| 50% | 1.5% |
| 55% | 11.7% |
| 60% | 21.8% |
| 65% | 32.0% |

The vig at +103
If both sides of a two-way market were priced at +103, the implied probabilities would add up to -1.48% above 100%. That excess is the overround, or vig; as a share of stakes it is a -1.50% margin for the bookmaker. Removing it leaves fair odds of 2.00 decimal ( +100) on each side. Use the devig calculator to do the same for any market.
