Overall Vig

↓ 7-day trend: MyBookie.ag's average vig has improved by 0.23 percentage points over the past week (from 5.74% to 5.51%).
MyBookie.ag is an offshore sportsbook based in Curaçao that has carved out a recognizable presence in the U.S.-facing market, largely through aggressive marketing and sponsorship deals with sports media personalities. It caters primarily to recreational bettors who may not have access to regulated state-level options or who prefer the flexibility that offshore books provide, including lower minimum deposits, cryptocurrency support, and access to a wide range of betting markets including props, parlays, and live wagering.
On the strengths side, MyBookie offers a broad menu of sports and bet types, frequent promotional bonuses, and a user interface that's relatively straightforward for casual users. The book is known for posting lines on niche markets and offering prop bets that some regulated competitors don't carry. However, its weaknesses are well-documented within the betting community. Withdrawal processing times can be slow compared to both offshore competitors like Pinnacle or BetOnline and regulated U.S. books, and bonus rollover requirements are often steep — a common friction point that bettors should scrutinize before opting in. MyBookie is not considered sharp-friendly; accounts that win consistently may see reduced limits or restricted action, which is typical of recreational-facing offshore operators but worth noting for serious bettors.
MyBookie's reputation is mixed. It has a loyal base of casual bettors who appreciate the promotions and market variety, but it has also drawn criticism over payout disputes and customer service inconsistencies. It's best suited for low-to-moderate volume recreational bettors who value market selection and bonuses over the sharpest lines or fastest payouts. Bettors comparing odds across books should note that MyBookie's lines can lag behind sharper markets, which occasionally creates value — but also reflects a book that prices for margin rather than precision.

What is vig (vigorish) in sports betting?
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.
How often is this data updated?
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.
How is the vig grade calculated?
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.
Why does lower vig matter for bettors?
Lower vig directly impacts your long-term returns. A bettor placing $1,000 per week at a book with 4% vig loses roughly $40/week to the house edge. At 2% vig, that drops to $20/week — a $1,040 difference over a year. For serious bettors, shopping for lower vig is one of the most reliable ways to improve profitability.
What sportsbooks do you track?
We track both regulated US sportsbooks (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars) and offshore books (Bovada, BetOnline, MyBookie, BetUS, LowVig.ag, BetAnySports). Data comes from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed sources.
How We Calculate These Numbers
- Data Source
- All odds on this page come from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed US and offshore sportsbooks. We track moneyline, spread, and totals markets across every sport with active betting lines.
- Update Frequency
- We pull a fresh snapshot of every tracked market 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 for a given event. The timestamp at the top of each page tells you exactly when the data was last refreshed.
- Vig Calculation
- Vig (short for vigorish, also called juice or overround) measures the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. We calculate it by converting the odds on each side of a market to implied probabilities, summing those probabilities, and subtracting 100%. For example, a market priced at -110/-110 implies 52.38% on each side — a total of 104.76%, meaning a vig of 4.76%. Lower vig means better value for bettors because you keep more of your winnings.
- Per-Market Breakdown
- We compute vig separately for each market type: moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and totals (over/under). The "average vig" shown for each sportsbook is the mean across all market types weighted by the number of events sampled in each market.
- Grading Scale
- Every sportsbook receives a letter grade based on its average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exchange-level pricing. A (2–3%) is very competitive. B+ (3–4%) is above average. B (4–5%) is the industry standard — a -110/-110 line is 4.76%. C+ (5–6%) is slightly below average. C (6–7%) is below average. D (7–8%) is high vig. D− (8–10%) is very high vig. F (10%+) is predatory pricing. See the full Vig Index Methodology for formulas, worked examples, and known limitations.
- Trend Tracking
- We store daily snapshots for 30 days, allowing us to show 24-hour and 7-day vig trends. A downward trend (improving) means sportsbooks are tightening their lines — often in response to increased competition or higher betting volume as a season heats up.
