    Hopefully someone can help me out with this, I'm too tired at the moment to work it out but I might have another go tomorrow.

    Anyway

    If you think the CL will either be won by Barcelona or Inter Milan, using these prices is it better to dutch bet on Barca/Inter (prices: Barca 3.33 on betfair, Inter 2.75 on stanjames) or to lay Bayern/Lyon (lay prices: Bayern 4.8, Lyon 9.2 both betfair obviously)

    Dutching on Barca/Inter -

    Barca: 3.33 (stake 45.23)
    Inter: 2.75 (stake 54.77)

    Total stake: 100.00
    Return if either wins: 147.47
    Profit: 47.47


    Laying on Bayern Lyon -

    Bayern: 4.8 (backers stake 23.37)
    Lyon: 9.2 (backers stake 12.20)

    Total liability: 100.00
    Return if Barca or Inter win the CL: 131.70
    Profit: 31.70


    Is that correct? The backers stakes above if each singled out reflect nearly a 200.00 liability but because they are backed on the same exchange + will both be winning bets if either Barca/Inter win the CL doesn't make sense to me. I used the calculator at http://www.laytheodds.com/dutching/free-dutching-calculator/

    Any help much appreciated.
