Multi-bookmaker stake distribution
Optimally split a single bet across multiple bookmakers for best average odds
Split a stake across bookmakers with different odds and stake limits to maximize average price.
Why split across bookmakers?
When you're a sharp bettor, your favourite book often limits stakes (e.g. max €50). To get serious money on, you split across multiple books — but they have different odds, so simple equal-splitting wastes EV. This calculator optimally allocates stake to maximize total weighted-average odds. Pair with Sure bet scanner for cross-book pricing and No-vig for fair-price comparison.
