What Is an Edge in CBB Betting?

An edge occurs when Dimers' model projects the probability of an event to be higher than the best odds available. Essentially, it means that our CBB model suggests a bet has a better likelihood of winning than the sportsbooks are giving it. This means the higher the edge, the better for you.

Although an edge does not guarantee that you will win a given bet, taking Dimers' plays with a higher betting edge can increase your chances of being a profitable bettor in the long run. This is an essential aspect of successful sports betting.
