Étiqueté : single bet calculator
So — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m 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 genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]treble calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier bits. They’ve got an implied probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The design looks a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, just the site — slight shame just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, works. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows the return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com]single calc[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely made a difference was the geekier extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability converter that shows what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is very functional, let’s say — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
