Hedge Bet Calculator
Hedging means placing a second bet on the opposite outcome of a wager you already have open, so you either guarantee a profit or reduce a potential loss regardless of the result. This calculator takes your original stake and odds plus the current odds on the other side, then computes the exact hedge stake needed to equalise your return across both outcomes. It shows the profit if either side wins and the total staked, so you can decide whether locking in a smaller sure thing beats letting the original bet ride. It works with American or decimal odds and is handy for cashing out a winning parlay leg or protecting a futures ticket. All math runs locally in your browser.
How to use Hedge Bet Calculator
- Enter your original bet stake and odds.
