Right — been on this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. I’m 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 a bit daft — I never could work out what an e/w payout would be when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and you get profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com]singles calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

One thing that actually changed how I bet was the nerdier extras. The odds-to-probability thing which shows you the overround, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable but the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame just flagging it.

So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone honestly 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 a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.

The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an each way return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]smarkets[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What really changed how I bet was the nerdier extras. There’s an probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. Its interface looks pretty plain — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it works though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

So — been on this thing for maybe five months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.

The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion formula[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

The thing that actually made a difference is the geekier tools. They’ve got an probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent if I’m splitting a race.

Not all sunshine though. The design feels very functional, let’s say — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
