Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]odds matching[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — 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 splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The layout feels very functional, let’s say — zero polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been using this thing for something like five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m based 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 pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]betfred lucky 63 calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really changed how I bet was the nerdier tools. The implied probability calculator and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface feels pretty plain — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. 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 four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really changed how I bet is the more serious tools. There’s an probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no proper app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
