OK — been on this thing for something like a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I open most — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really shifted things for me is the nerdier bits. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout looks a bit basic — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

So — been using this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never work out what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/double]each way double calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually shifted things for me was the nerdier tools. There’s an probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The layout is very functional, let’s say — zero frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
