OK — been using this thing for about six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.

What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]half kelly calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

The thing that really made a difference were the geekier bits. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. The design feels a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it works although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.

Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.

The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you put in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/patent]ew patent calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

One thing that actually changed how I bet were the more serious tools. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too if I’m splitting a race.

It’s not perfect mind. Its layout looks pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine although the bigger tables are a squeeze. And no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.

So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.

The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you drop in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where most people I know mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/yankee]yankee calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What really made a difference were the more serious extras. There’s an implied probability calculator which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. The design feels pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.

Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
