Re: Who pays the vig: The loser or the winner??
Everyone pays the vig, and it's not close. BobJoeJim explained why perfectly.
The vig is the mechanism by which the house skews the EV in it's favor. That's it's function, that's all it does, that's what it is -- thinking of it any other way is pointless. You pay when you place the apparently -EV wager, and that should be intuitively obvious to everyone on a poker message board.
