single bet calculator

So — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, generally bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.

How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion odds calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

One thing that actually made a difference is the geekier extras. The odds-to-probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.

Not all sunshine though. Its layout looks a bit basic — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.

So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
