Operations

1. Calculate Vig for a Two-Way Market

Given American odds for both sides:

```python
python3 -c "
import sys
odds = [int(x) for x in sys.argv[1:]]
probs = []
for o in odds:
if o < 0:
probs.append(abs(o) / (abs(o) + 100))
else:
probs.append(100 / (o + 100))
total = sum(probs)
vig = (total - 1) * 100
hold = (1 - 1/total) * 100
print(f'Implied probs: {[round(p*100,2) for p in probs]}%')
print(f'Sum: {round(total*100,2)}%')
print(f'Vig (overround): {round(vig,2)}%')
print(f'Hold: {round(hold,2)}%')
fair = [round(p/total*100,2) for p in probs]
print(f'No-vig fair probs: {fair}%')
