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

You weren't shorted anything. You have no right winning the 10 bucks. That is the vig. That is the amount overcharged to the losing bettor. When you made the bet at -110 you knew before the event started that you would not be winning what you laid down. The extra 10 risked by you is what your sportsbook requires before they'd take your bet.
