What that margin costs you

At a 7.84% margin, every 100 units you stake with Betfair carry an expected cost of 7.84 units before any skill is involved. Someone staking 100 units a month pays roughly 94 units a year in margin alone — 73 units more per year than at the cheapest bookmaker we track (Matchbook, 1.75%).

Margin over the last 90 days

Each point is the average margin of the matches whose last pre-match price we captured that week (weeks with fewer than 10 matches are hidden). The most recent point can still move slightly as late prices arrive.

Bunu nasıl ölçüyoruz

Her maç için, kendi oran arşivlerimizden her bahis şirketinin en güncel 1X2 fiyatlarını alır, bunları ima edilen olasılıklara dönüştürürüz (oranın 1'e bölümü) ve toplarız. Adil bir piyasa tam olarak 100% eder; bunun üzerindeki her şey bahis şirketinin marjıdır — her bahiste ödediğiniz gömülü ücret. Bu marjı, son 30 günde bahis şirketinin fiyatladığı tüm maçlar üzerinden ortalarız. Yerleştirme için kimse bize ödeme yapmaz ve hiçbir affiliate anlaşması bu tabloyu yeniden sıralamaz: bu, kaydedilmiş fiyatlar üzerinde yapılan aritmetiktir ve her gün yeniden hesaplanır.
