| Converting
Moneyline Odds into Win Probability
Here's a neat little rig that helps you with your handicapping by
helping you, at a glance, figure out whether or not you've got an
edge. See the instructions below.
NOTE: This converter does not take into effect the juice (vig), but
instead handles it as if this were a perfect world. Also, it can
only handle actual percentages, so don't try to stick ".645" in
there. Instead, type in "64.5". Enjoy!
