OK — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was actually embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an e/w return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in the price and your stake and it shows the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculator excel[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely made a difference is the nerdier tools. There’s an probability converter that shows what margin’s baked in, and a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The interface looks very functional, let’s say — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
