What is the Sure Bet Calculator & How does it work?

A sure‑bet (also called arbitrage) occurs when the odds offered by two or more bookmakers on all possible outcomes of an event guarantee a profit, regardless of the result. This happens because the combined implied probability of the odds is less than 100 %.

To exploit a sure‑bet you must distribute your total stake across the bookmakers in proportion to their odds. The higher the odds for a particular outcome, the smaller the stake you need to allocate to that outcome, while still ensuring the same return.

The guaranteed profit is the difference between the return from any outcome and the total amount wagered. By carefully calculating the stakes you lock in a risk‑free return, which can be repeated whenever new arbitrage opportunities appear.

S_{1}=frac{Tcdot O_{2}}{O_{1}+O_{2}},;S_{2}=frac{Tcdot O_{1}}{O_{1}+O_{2}}
S1 = stake on outcome 1, S2 = stake on outcome 2, O1 = odds of outcome 1, O2 = odds of outcome 2, T = total stake
