Overround (margin)

The sum of implied probabilities in a market above 100% — the bookmaker's built-in edge.

Overround is how much a book adds up over 100% when you convert every price to implied probability. A race that sums to 120% has a 20% overround.

Quick maths

Implied % ≈ 100 / decimal odds. Add them up across the field. Use the odds converter per price.
