Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you drop in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]accumulator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference were the nerdier extras. There’s an odds-to-probability thing that shows the overround, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The design is pretty plain — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in stake and odds and it shows the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/betting-margin]spread betting calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet is the more serious tools. The implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The layout feels a bit basic — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been on this thing for something like six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out the return instantly, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]smarkets[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference is the more serious bits. The odds-to-probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design is very functional, let’s say — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, does the job. If you still adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
