Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/betting-margin]spread betting calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually changed how I bet were the more serious bits. They’ve got an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The interface is very functional, let’s say — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
