Right — been using this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]accumulator betting calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier extras. They’ve got an implied probability thing which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The design feels very functional, let’s say — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you still adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

Right — have been messing about with this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows returns straight away, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculator app[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the nerdier extras. There’s an implied probability converter that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its interface looks a bit basic — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine although the acca grid are a squeeze. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
