What hold means for you

Hold is the share of all the money bet on a market that the book expects to keep if it's balanced. A standard -110 / -110 market holds about 4.5%. Some books, some markets (props and parlays especially) hold far more.

Lower hold means a better price for you on average. That's the whole idea behind line shopping.
