Dodgers Moneyline at -155 on Bet365: we devig 8 books on the same market to estimate a true win probability of 58.3% — fair odds -140. The gap between -155 and -140 is the -4.03% edge: your long-run expected return per dollar if the market is right about true probability.
Across many identical wagers, you'd expect to lose about 4.0 cents on every dollar staked — the offered -155 is worse than the consensus fair price (-140). Any single ticket can still cash; the math just runs against you over time.
No. The price still implies roughly a 60.8% chance the ticket cashes. +EV means the payout exceeds the true probability — most positive-EV longshots still lose individually. The edge only shows up across many similar bets.
Grading is a price-quality signal, not a prediction. Even an B-grade ticket can lose. Size within your bankroll, account for correlation between legs, and use Inside Angles above to spot factors the price hasn't absorbed yet.
