Sure sports bet is such distribution
of odds accepted by the different bookmakers that you will have a
guaranteed winning with any outcome of the sports match.
Suppose that you have to bet for a soccer match on home/draw/away
outcomes, dealing with different bookmakers. Let the best odds in
Germany against England match on home/draw/away outcomes are 2.80
/3.50 /3.10.
The odd 2.80 means that a bet for 1 EUR gives you 2.80 EUR in
case of a home winning. Hence if you will divide 1 EUR by this odd,
1 EUR / 2.80, then you will receive 0.36 EUR in case of a draw or
an away outcome. Doing such with the other odds and adding the results,
you get the cost of a 1 EUR payment irrespective of the outcome of
the match: 0.36 + 0.29 + 0.32 = 0.97.
You will need 0.97 EUR to be sure to get 1 EUR back. That means
if you would bet a 0.36 EUR in one bookmaker's office for the home
winning, 0.29 EUR in another for the draw result, and 0.32 EUR in
the third bookmaker's office for the away winning, you should be
sure that your income will be a 1 EUR.
Notes: What you definitely
need to be aware of, if you intend to play Sure bets, are the rules
of the individual bookmakers. Get yourself informed about the costs
of payment and pay-off. It also needs to be certain that the quotes
don't get changed after you placed your bets. Some bookmakers also
hand-down taxes to you and subtract them from your winnings. There
are some things to consider, when you play Sure bets — but if you
do it, you have a nice possibility to upgrade your income.
