How to use the fair line

At −110 vig, the model sees value on the OVER at lines below 28.5 and on the UNDER at lines above 31.9. Between those boundaries, neither side clears the vig-adjusted breakeven. At the fair line (30.0), no-vig breakeven odds are +102 on the OVER (49.55% win prob) and +104 on the UNDER (49.07% win prob), with a 1.38% push.

Model limitations

PropStein publishes model limitations alongside every page. Roles and thresholds are provisional pending chronological holdout validation. In our published week-1 holdout evaluation the model's Brier score trailed the naive baseline; we treat that as an open defect, not a marketing problem, and we publish recalibration results as they land. Snapshots are taken pre-kickoff; quotes age and lines move, so every number here carries a timestamp and a verification state. Route-participation and late-scratch information are not fully modeled. Nothing on this site is betting advice.
