So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.

How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I never could work out what an ew return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting odds calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that genuinely made a difference is the nerdier bits. There’s an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.

Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, works. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

Right — been on this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.

How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I could never figure out what an each way return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.

The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]football bet accumulator calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

One thing that actually made a difference were the geekier tools. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. Its interface looks very functional, let’s say — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — been using this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.

How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]bet accumulator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What actually changed how I bet were the nerdier bits. They’ve got an probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. The interface is pretty plain — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.

Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
