Mathematical Formula & Step-by-Step Guide
Primary mathematical equation used by this model:
Arb % = (1/Odds1) + (1/Odds2); Stake1 = Total × (1/Odds1) / Arb%; Guaranteed Return = Stake1 × Odds1
- Configure your primary input (Total Combined Investment ($), baseline set to 1,000) using either the direct numeric box or synchronized range slider.
- Adjust the remaining parameters (Bookmaker 1 Decimal Odds (Side A), Bookmaker 2 Decimal Odds (Side B)) to mirror your exact scenario.
- Examine the primary output alongside the secondary breakdown metrics and the 6-tier benchmark comparison table below.

Frequently Asked Questions — Arbitrage & Hedge Bet
What mathematical formula does the Sports Betting Arbitrage (Surebet) & Hedge Profit Calculator use?
This calculator implements the verified relationship: Arb % = (1/Odds1) + (1/Odds2); Stake1 = Total × (1/Odds1) / Arb%; Guaranteed Return = Stake1 × Odds1. Each variable (Total Combined Investment ($), Bookmaker 1 Decimal Odds (Side A), Bookmaker 2 Decimal Odds (Side B)) is evaluated in real time using double-precision floating-point arithmetic so there is zero rounding drift across multi-step scenarios.
How does changing Total Combined Investment ($) impact the final result?
Total Combined Investment ($) acts as the primary driver in this model (default baseline: 1,000). Use the Reference Benchmark Table on this page to compare how scaling Total Combined Investment ($) from conservative to aggressive levels changes both the primary outcome and secondary ratios.
