Right — been using this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. I’m based 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 actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/dutch]calculator dutching[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

What really changed how I bet is the more serious tools. There’s an probability calculator that shows what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. The interface looks a bit basic — zero flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.

So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

Right — been using this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.

The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.

Their single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows returns straight away, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting risk free calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

One thing that actually changed how I bet is the nerdier bits. There’s an implied probability calculator that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. The design is a bit basic — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.

So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
