So — been using this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]accumulator calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really changed how I bet was the nerdier extras. The odds-to-probability converter which shows you 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 is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design is very functional, let’s say — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it works though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

Right — been using this thing for about four months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. 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 a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in stake and odds and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]odds converter betting[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually changed how I bet is the nerdier extras. There’s an probability thing that shows the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design looks a bit basic — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
