Since OP said that he will add esport but he still not do it yet and I also doing comparisons on esport too. I decided to shared it here.
I have to included 1xbit here because It provide biggest coverage in esport. Can't skip them sorry.
ESPORT:
- = Not available.
Now compare with real money sportsbook.
Overall: esport have extremely high margin. Even Pinnacle have 4.87% margin. I hope in future some sportsbook can step up and give better margin than this.

Thanks for doing this! Mind if I add it to the thread (with credit to you)?
Also, what event(s) did you compare? I would expect that margins highly differ in eSports depending on the event - some minor CS:GO qualifier is going to have a higher margin than LoL Worlds.
Tomorrow will be the first day of one of the biggest CS:GO event ($750,000 price pool. Almost all top 10 team attend) So I might gonna do it again in tomorrow
