So — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly a bit daft — I never could work out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]back and lay calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the geekier extras. There’s an probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables 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 you honestly adds it up in their head, try it — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
