Right — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I’d always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk]single stakes about bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What genuinely changed how I bet was the nerdier tools. There’s an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its interface looks very functional, let’s say — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, try it — saves me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.

Right — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in stake and odds and it spits out the return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier tools. The odds-to-probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels pretty plain — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it works although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who even now adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
