OK — been on this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]odds matching calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually changed how I bet is the more serious bits. They’ve got an probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout is pretty plain — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If you even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
