So — been on this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out returns straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculator formula[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What genuinely made a difference is the nerdier bits. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface is pretty plain — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it works although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

Right — been on this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I never could work out what an e/w payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — type in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/each-way]each way bet calculator double[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that genuinely made a difference was the nerdier tools. The probability converter that shows how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s usable though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
