OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly calculator sports betting[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually shifted things for me is the more serious tools. They’ve got an probability thing that shows the overround, and a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is pretty plain — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
