What is it?
Hedge betting is a sophisticated risk management strategy that allows you to lock in profits or minimize losses on existing wagers. By placing a second bet on the opposite outcome, you can create a more predictable result regardless of the final outcome. This strategy is particularly valuable for futures bets, longshots, or situations where odds have moved significantly in your favor.

Example
Example: Original bet $100 on Chiefs +750 to win Super Bowl. Chiefs reach finals vs Packers (+200). Calculator shows: Hedge $283.33 on Packers. If Chiefs win: +$750 - $283.33 = $466.67 profit. If Packers win: +$566.66 - $100 = $466.66 profit. Guaranteed $466.67 profit regardless of outcome.
