Right — been using this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an e/w payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and moan when the payout landed. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]football treble bet[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that really made a difference was the geekier extras. There’s an odds-to-probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s usable though the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
