How To Work Out a Free Bet on Fairexch9 Com Id?

Let's imagine that instead of measuring our profit on Fairexch9 Com Id equally across all three outcomes, we wish to trade for a return on only one, offsetting our pre-match liabilities and essentially providing us a free bet.

In our example, Southampton leads 1-0. Assume we wish to bet our entire profit on Southampton winning the game.

Southampton: Profit and Pre-Match Liability?

How much should we lay Southampton for in order to make a profit and satisfy our pre-match liability?

The formula is simple:

Lay Liability = (Original bet stake * Current lay odds) – Original bet stake

Lay Liability = (€100 * 1.60) – €100

Lay Liability = €60

In this situation, our liability on our Southampton lay bet should be €60 for a return of €160, a profit of €100, and so cover our pre-match stake.
