Right — been using this thing for about six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could figure out what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — type in stake and odds and it shows returns straight away, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 quotenrechner[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually shifted things for me is the nerdier extras. They’ve got an probability calculator that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is pretty plain — no flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it works although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If you still does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
Right — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an each way return would be when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and you get returns instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always lose track.

One thing that really changed how I bet were the nerdier tools. There’s an odds-to-probability thing that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The design looks very functional, let’s say — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, try it — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
