Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]how does a treble bet work[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference is the more serious extras. They’ve got an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its design looks a bit basic — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s browser only — fine by me but you asked.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. Am UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could work out what an ew payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]3 way no vig calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really made a difference was the nerdier tools. The probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The interface feels very functional, let’s say — zero flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
Right — been using this thing for something like four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. I’m UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly embarrassing — I never could work out what an each way return actually was when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]smarkets calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the geekier tools. The probability calculator which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface is a bit basic — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
