What Is an Edge in NBA Futures 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 DimersBOT believes a bet has a better chance of cashing than the sportsbooks are giving it. That's why the higher the edge, the better for you.

Although it does not guarantee that you will win a given bet, taking picks 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.
