In sports betting there are several strategies and methods to be applied when choosing to bet on a particular event. One of these techniques is called dutching, and that's what we'll talk about throughout this article. Unlike a "popular" bet, where we analyze an option that offers better value or advantage and place money on that team or player with the confidence that it will be the winner, in dutching we choose several results or possibilities to come out as the winner in a single event and distribute our money and risk in these options. We will explain in detail.

In dutching the idea is to bet on several results at the same time, calculating that regardless of the final result (as long as it is one you selected) you have the same profit, or something very close to it. This technique is widely used in horse and greyhound racing, but nothing prevents it from being tested in football matches, for example. Let's say you are interested in betting on a horse race with 08 competitors. Which is easier in this case, picking a single winner or distributing the chance of winning this contest among three competitors that you think can win? The second option is the application of dutching, because this way you are choosing a greater number of likely results, although your profit is obviously smaller, but with more “security”.

Let's detail it in the example below.
Let's say you are willing to bet $100 on this horse race, and you want to spread that amount across three competitors. Basically you need to find possibilities that allow that regardless of the winner, you can always end up with a value greater than the one played, that is, the profit. You evaluated and found some favorites to win with odds of 3.50, 4.20 and 5.70.
- $40.00 in the competitor with odd 3.50: (return of $140.00)
- $35.00 in the competitor with odd 4.20: (return of $147.00)
- $25.00 in the competitor with odd 5.70: (return of $142.50)
Did you understand? If among the 8 horses the winner is one of the 3 you scored, your profit will be practically the same, as you hear a mathematical distribution of values with the offered probabilities. Obviously, if none of them wins, your R$ 100.00 will go up in the air, but it's a technique for you to play with a higher level of security and with higher chances of extracting some money from that event.
There are dutching calculators on the internet to make your life easier, where you will put the amount to be bet and the odds of the favorites you intend to bet and it will promptly give you the exact numbers (values) that you will have to distribute in each selected odd, such as in the example above. With that, in a practical and safe way, you have information to know if it is really viable to have gains with this bet and the possible profits that each odd can offer.
If you like to trade your bets on football, one of the possibilities is the correct scoreboard market. This market generally offers some high odds, enabling you to pick some odds and extract profits if the outcome is one of those selected by you. The process is the same as above for horse racing, and our calculator will provide you with the exact amounts to place on each odd, regardless of the amount you wish to bet. We believe that with these examples you have understood the concept of this method, but we suggest that you go even deeper, as it can offer you other options depending on your level of player. And we, whenever possible, will bring you other techniques and benefits. Good luck!
