Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and then be surprised. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — you drop in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com]single calc[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually shifted things for me was the nerdier extras. The probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface feels pretty plain — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]no-vig fair odds calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier bits. There’s an probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface is very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If you honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. I’m UK based, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you put in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]lucky 15 calculator free[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually made a difference was the geekier bits. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The interface looks very functional, let’s say — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it’s saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
