What Is an Edge in NHL 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 projectsthat a bet has a better likelihood of winning than the sportsbooks are giving it. This means the higher the edge, the better.

Although an edge does not guarantee a win, 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.
