Lock in a result on an open bet by betting the other side.
Enter your bet and the price on the other side.
How it works
An equal hedge stakes the original bet's payback divided by the hedge's decimal odds, so you finish with the same amount whichever side wins.
A break-even hedge stakes just enough to get your original stake back if the hedge wins, and lets the rest ride on the original bet.
Every hedge costs the vig on the hedge bet. It trades expected value for certainty.
