So — been on this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am UK based, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, honestly that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/each-way]how to work out each way bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really shifted things for me is the geekier bits. There’s an implied probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its design feels pretty plain — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — been using this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]football bet accumulator calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the geekier extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The design is a bit basic — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
