When to Hedge
Hedging locks in profit (or limits loss) by betting on the opposite outcome. Common scenarios:
Accumulator Hedging
Your 5-leg accumulator has 4 winners. The final leg could win you 500 or lose everything. Hedge on the opposite outcome to guarantee some profit.
Live Betting Hedge
You bet on Team A pre-match at 3.00. They're now winning and their odds dropped to 1.20. Hedge on Team B to lock in profit.
The Trade-off
Hedging reduces your maximum potential profit but guarantees a positive outcome. It's risk management, not a strategy to increase expected value.
