Lay Bet Calculator
Calculate liability and profit for lay bets on exchanges
How it works
Enter a cash back stake and both prices to calculate the equal-return lay stake. Commission is excluded.
Hypothetical example
A R100 back bet at 3.00, hedged at lay odds of 3.10, needs an unrounded lay stake of R96.7742. The liability is about R203.23 and the combined result is about -R3.23 either way, before commission.
