I am currently Dutching as per Peter`s blog. However my brain has melted with regard to cashing in any players price that has come in. Am I able to do this (and how) or will the the other prices be affected.
Thanks in anticipation of your replies. :?:

If you want to shuffle profit or liability from one player to another using manual greening on the manual bet area.

Many thanks for your reply, unfortunately this is the point where I Melted. Is there a video or explanation of this technique?

P&L scenarios

Player a is +£100
Player b is -£100

To spread the profit equally between the two players, hedge on player a by manually greening +200, i.e. the difference between players

This will instruct Bet Angel to hedge 200 at the current odds of player a. Eliminating the profit on player a by transferring to everybody else, including player b.

To reduce the loss on the player b hedge with -200

You can partially hedge as well

So if you have -£173 and -£136

Type in £36 and do a manual green next to the player with -£136, this will spread the differential between -£136 and -£172 so both are equal.

Please test it before you do big numbers so you understand the concept
