BetRivers typically offers competitive vig among regulated US sportsbooks, often on par with or slightly better than DraftKings and FanDuel on select markets. They are operated by Rush Street Interactive, which also runs PlaySugarHouse and BetRivers in multiple states.

BetRivers operates in multiple US states including Illinois, Indiana, Colorado, Virginia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Louisiana, and others. Availability continues to expand as more states legalize sports betting.

BetRivers may limit or restrict consistently profitable accounts, which is standard practice among regulated US sportsbooks. However, some bettors report that BetRivers is somewhat more tolerant than DraftKings and FanDuel when it comes to bet limits.

FanDuel and DraftKings typically have similar vig levels as regulated US sportsbooks. FanDuel occasionally edges ahead on specific markets. Both tend to have higher base vig than offshore books, but offer promotions and same-game parlays to attract recreational bettors.

FanDuel is a regulated, licensed sportsbook operating under state gaming commissions. This means deposit/withdrawal protection, tax reporting, and legal recourse if disputes arise. The tradeoff is generally higher vig and more aggressive bettor limiting compared to offshore alternatives.

Vig — short for vigorish, also called juice or overround — is the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. It's the difference between the true probability of an outcome and what the odds imply. Lower vig means you keep more of your winnings on every bet. For example, a standard -110/-110 line has about 4.76% vig.

We pull fresh odds from The Odds API three times per day — at 6:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 10:00 PM UTC. Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds. The timestamp at the top of the page shows the most recent refresh.

Each sportsbook is graded on a letter scale based on average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exceptional, A (2–3%) is excellent, B+ (3–4%) is above average, B (4–5%) is the industry standard, C (5–6%) is below average, and D (above 6%) indicates high-juice markets.
