What these numbers mean

Market's chance

How likely the betting market thinks a result is, in plain words. About 7 in 10 means it happens about 7 times out of 10.

Fair price

The price with the bookies' cut taken out. We take the middle price across all the books we check and remove their share. It is our house line, not a tip.

Best price

The most any book we check is paying right now. A $10 bet at $1.50 pays back $15 if it wins. Every book keeps a cut, so the best price is often a little under the fair price.

How much the bookies keep

For every $100 bet on who wins, this is the share the bookies keep. Less is better for you.

Moved toward

Since prices opened, the market now gives that side a bigger chance than it did at first. News and money move prices.

What is a fair price?

It is the price with the bookies' cut removed, worked out from the middle price across all the books we check. If the fair price is $1.43, the market thinks that team wins about 7 times in 10.

How much do bookies keep on MLB games?

About $5.00 of every $100 bet on who wins, going by the prices we checked on 18 October. It moves a little from day to day.

Why do MLB odds move?

Prices move when news lands, like injuries, weather or team changes, and when lots of money comes in on one side. Each game above says which way it has moved since prices opened. Always check the price in your app before you bet.
