What is a Dutching Calculator?

A dutching calculator works out the exact stakes to back multiple selections in the same event, so you make the same profit regardless of which one wins. It’s an essential tool for Australian matched bettors and punters who want to spread risk across outcomes.

Unlike a traditional bet where you pick one winner, dutching lets you spread your risk across two or more outcomes. The calculator handles all the maths, showing you exactly how much to stake on each selection based on the odds.

Why Use a Dutching Calculator?

The maths behind dutching gets complicated fast. If you're backing three outcomes at different odds, working out the stakes manually is tedious and error-prone. A dutch betting calculator does it instantly, showing you exactly how much to place on each selection for equal profit.

The Dutching Formula

Team B Stake = (Team A Stake × Team A Odds) ÷ Team B Odds

Example: $50 on Team A @ 2.00, Team B @ 3.50:
Team B Stake = ($50 × 2.00) ÷ 3.50 = $28.57
Total Outlay: $50 + $28.57 = $78.57
Return (either wins): $100.00
Profit: $21.43

3-Way Dutching Example

Dutching a soccer match to get equal returns of $100 on any outcome:

Team A @ 3.00 Stake: $33.33 → Return: $100
The Draw @ 4.00 Stake: $25.00 → Return: $100
Team B @ 3.00 Stake: $33.33 → Return: $100
Total staked: $91.67 Profit: $8.33

This example has a combined implied probability of 91.7% (under 100%), creating an arbitrage opportunity. Most markets have overround above 100%, meaning dutching alone creates a loss. That's why matched bettors combine dutching with bookmaker promos to add value.

Dutching Calculator FAQ

What is a dutching calculator?
A dutching calculator is a tool that calculates the exact stakes to place on multiple selections so you make the same profit no matter which one wins. You enter your stake and the odds for each selection, and it tells you how much to bet on each.
How does dutching work?
Dutching spreads your stake across multiple selections proportionally based on their odds. Lower odds selections get larger stakes, higher odds get smaller stakes. The result is equal profit regardless of which selection wins.
What is the dutching formula?
The dutching formula to equalise your position is: Team B Stake = (Team A Stake × Team A Odds) ÷ Team B Odds. For example, if you bet $50 on Team A at odds of 2.00, and Team B is at 3.50, you would bet $28.57 on Team B to make the same profit regardless of which team wins.
Is dutching the same as arbitrage?
They're related but different. Both involve backing multiple outcomes. Dutching calculates stakes to equalise your return across outcomes at whatever odds are available – it doesn't guarantee profit unless the combined odds allow for it. Arbitrage exploits price differences across bookmakers to guarantee profit regardless of outcome.
What sports can I use dutching for?
Dutching works for any sport with multiple outcomes. It's popular for soccer (3-way markets with draw), AFL, NRL, tennis, and any event where you want to back more than one selection.
Does the calculator work with Betfair?
Yes. Bonusbank's dutching calculator includes a Betfair commission adjuster that accounts for commission, so you can accurately include Betfair in your dutch calculations.
Is dutching legal in Australia?
Yes, dutching is completely legal. You're simply placing multiple bets on the same event, which bookmakers allow. It's a smart betting strategy, not cheating.
