Andreina Baiano: 6:36pm Feb 5, 2007: to hedge one’s bets = scommettere su ambedue i risultati, scommettere pro e contro

scommettere (on su)

Explanation:
Andreina,

Arbing in English is slang for arbitrage, synonymous to betting. In your case it is called matched betting and laying at the betting exchange against an outcome. However, the only italian term i could think of or find was still scommetere. Please check these links. I hope they help you get a better idea of the situation. Buon lavoro!
