Default Re: Who pays the vig: The loser or the winner??

[ QUOTE ]
Why do people assume that "negative EV" and "vig" are almost synonymous.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think anybody is, I'm definately not. I'm talking about EV, not -EV specifically. Vig is always included in the EV value of the bet, which is why I say that both the winner and loser really pay. I understand your perspective, and it is also true if you only think of things in $ terms.
