OK — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]bet exchange calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really shifted things for me was the geekier bits. The probability converter which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its design feels pretty plain — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly adds it up in their head, try it — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could figure out what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. 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 open most — type in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]49s yankee bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What really made a difference is the geekier bits. They’ve got an probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design is pretty plain — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s usable though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
