So — have been messing about with this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an ew payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days 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 your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/patent]how to work out a patent bet[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really changed how I bet is the nerdier bits. The probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — zero frills, 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, it’s browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, give it a go — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
