Hedge Calculator

Calculate how much to bet on the other side to guarantee the same profit regardless of outcome.

Hedge stake$48.00
Net profit if original wins+$12.00
Net profit if hedge wins+$12.00

Your original stake is already spent regardless of outcome. Net profit accounts for all money placed.

How it works

To guarantee equal profit on both outcomes, set the net return equal for both sides. The formula is: hedge stake = original bet x original decimal odds / hedge decimal odds.

Your original stake is already spent, so the net profit shown accounts for all money placed. Hedging makes sense when the locked-in profit exceeds zero and the hedge odds are shorter than your original bet. If the opposing side is now paying more than your original bet, a pure hedge is not possible at a profit.
