Hockey surebet Let's take a look at the KHL regular season match between Barys Nur-Sultan and SKA. Surebets in hockey 🌻 are most oftenly spotted at totals. In this clash, we are interested in Total Over / Total Under (4.5). One 🌻 bookie set the odds at 1.85 for Total Over (4.5), while the other set 2.27 for Total Under (4.5). Bookmaker 🌻 Total under 4.5 Total over 4.5 1 1.78 1.85 2 2.27 1.65 Both sportsbooks have included margin in their odds 🌻 and are to make a profit regardless of the final result. For clarity, let's make a calculation: BK1: L = 🌻 1 / 1.78 + 1 / 1.85 = 1,102
BK2: L = 1 / 2.27 + 1 / 1.65 = 1,046 🌻 Anything over 1.0 is to be considered the bookie's earnings. In our case, the margin is 10.2 and 4.6 percent, 🌻 respectively. When we bet on the aforementioned outcomes, we will outplay the bookmaker. Let's check this by substituting the numbers 🌻 in the formula: L = 1 / 1.85 + 1 / 2,27 = 0,9810 The final indicator (L) is <1.0, 🌻 meaning there is an arbitrage situation. The lower it is, the more profitable the bet is. We carried out a 🌻 count with the help of a surebet calculator, and found that it is more beneficial for us to wagerR$551 on 🌻 Total Over (4.5) andR$449 on Total Under (4.5). With this distribution, our profit will beR$ 19.35. andR$ 19.23, respectively.
Reasons for 🌻 surebet appearance A surebet is a situation occurring due to discrepancies in the odds of specific bookmakers set for the 🌻 opposite outcomes. This kind of situation may happen not only due to the carelessness of the analytic, but sometimes on 🌻 purpose. Surebets usually appear for the following reasons: the bookie is trying to attract more bettors using the odds set 🌻 too high;
Live and Prematch There are two types of surebets - Prematch and Live. Prematch sure betting presupposes betting before 🌻 the start of the event. A classic type of a bet, comprehensible even to newbies. The odds on in the 🌻 prematch section are virtually stable (granted, there are no dropping odds). This kind of bet is to be wagered without 🌻 delays on the part of the bookmaker, which is a key factor for using surebets. Live mode means direct betting 🌻 in the course of the match. The odds for the outcomes are constantly changing based on the situation on the 🌻 field. This betting method is very similar to the Prematch one, but the odds change lightning fast. However, many experienced 🌻 bettors are increasingly turning to live surebets because of the more substantial profit and significantly exceeding number. The BetWasp software 🌻 for scanning and operating surebets supports both Live and Prematch mode. Each bettor is able to choose surebets that suits 🌻 better, effectively making wagers and gaining profit.
