The Odds Board puts every game on one page, with the best price for each bet. Here's how to read it, from zero.

Pick a sport, then how many days ahead.

Each game is two rows: away on top, home below. The columns are the three main bets: spread, total and moneyline.

Each cell is the best eligible price for that side, with the logo of the book offering it. Eligible means fresh, not an extreme longshot, and quoted by more than one book. A dashed, dimmed cell has no eligible price, so it's not one to act on.

Under each price, the little line shows where it's been, and the bell sets a price alert. Members also see the estimated edge after fees.

Consensus is the middle price across the books. Estimated fair is the market's fair price, with the books' cut taken out. Market vig is that cut on the whole market: the lower it is, the less you pay.

You save shows how much more a $100 bet pays at the best price than at the average book.

Turn on Best from my books only to see the best prices at your books.

Like a game? Tap it to open Compare Books on that game. Then check the price at the book right before you bet, because prices move.

On the Odds Board, the estimated edge on every line comes with your WGT membership.
