So — been on this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since someone asked me the other day. I’m UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I never could figure out what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — type in stake and odds and it spits out the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]free bet calculator lucky 15[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really made a difference is the nerdier extras. They’ve got an implied probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is decent for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
