An arbitrage is two opposite bets at two different sportsbooks. When the two books disagree enough, what comes back beats what you put in, whichever side wins.

Pick pregame or live. Then set your total stake: what you would really bet on both sides together.

Each row is one pair: two legs, each with its price, its book and how fresh the quote is. The green amount on each leg is the stake to bet on that side. Worst case is what you keep whichever side wins, after exchange fees and after the stakes are rounded to real dollars.

Some legs show a max. That's the posted limit, the most that exchange will take right now, and the stakes are cut to fit it. And a gap bigger than 12% is treated as a posting error, so it's never listed.

Tap a pair to see every outcome after fees and rounding, the stake calculator and the math. Right before you bet, tap Re-check both prices. Place the leg with the lower limit or the older price first, then check the other price again.

Player prop pairs carry a void risk tag. If the player doesn't play, one leg can void and refund while the other can still lose. Check both books' void rules first.

Arbs are rare, and they usually close fast. A quote is not an accepted bet. If one book refuses, limits or moves the price, stop and re-run the split.
