Arbitrage & Hedging

Make the most of your action.

Graduate-Level Edges for the Sharp Set

1. Arbitrage

Find opposing prices that guarantee profit (e.g., +110 vs -105). Plug into an arb calculator, split stakes, lock risk-free cents.

2. Middle Betting

Bet early on Team A -3.5, wait for public steam, come back on Team B +7. If the final margin lands 4–7, you win both sides. Requires line-move intuition and multiple outs.

3. Live-Bet Hedging

Oppose a pre-game position mid-game to cut variance—great when bankroll volatility matters.

4. Kelly-Fraction Scaling

Using ½ Kelly tempers bankroll swings while still maximizing geometric growth.

Risk Flags

• Arbs & middles spotlight you to trading desks—spread volume across books.
• Small-market arbs (table tennis at 3 a.m.) fast-track limits; stick to high-liquidity leagues.
