Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]super yankee calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What genuinely changed how I bet was the more serious tools. There’s an odds-to-probability thing which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The design looks a bit basic — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — have been messing about with this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally do football and horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an each way payout would be when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]match bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really made a difference is the more serious bits. There’s an probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, works. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — 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 UK based, generally do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one 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. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, which is where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched bet finder[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the nerdier bits. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its design looks pretty plain — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
