The Scout’s Notebook
Hedging means betting the other side of an open position so both outcomes return the same amount: the equalizing stake is h = s·d ÷ d_H — your stake times your decimal odds, divided by the hedge side's decimal odds.
A custom partial-hedge field prices any in-between amount as two scenario bars, because a full lock is not always the right play.
No — hedging always surrenders EV to the vig on the second bet, so the full lock is only optimal when the certainty is worth more to you than the expected value given up. The calculator prices partial hedges so you can choose the point on that curve deliberately.
