So — been using this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m UK based, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could figure out what an e/w payout actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/patent]permed patent bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually made a difference were the geekier bits. They’ve got an probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface feels very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

How I found it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and you get returns instantly, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz free bet calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me was the geekier extras. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The interface is very functional, let’s say — no flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
