Right — been on this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could figure out what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you put in stake and odds and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]accumulator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really changed how I bet is the more serious extras. The implied probability converter which shows you the overround, and a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The layout feels a bit basic — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it works although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If anyone still does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
