Hedge Bet Calculator
Hedging means placing a second bet on the opposing outcome, at odds available now, so you profit (or limit loss) regardless of which side wins.
How it works
The hedge stake is sized so the payout from either bet matches the other, guaranteeing the same result no matter which outcome happens.
Worked example: A $50 bet at 3.00 odds ($150 payout) hedged at 1.80 needs a $150 / 1.80 = $83.33 hedge stake for an equal, guaranteed profit.
FAQ
When does hedging make sense?
Typically when odds have moved in your favor since your original bet, or ahead of an event where you want to lock in a guaranteed outcome rather than ride the full variance.
Does hedging always guarantee a profit?
It guarantees the same result on both outcomes - that result can be a small guaranteed profit, breakeven, or a smaller guaranteed loss than not hedging, depending on the odds available.
