OK — been on this thing for something like five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.

How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d wing 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 part I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/implied-probability]implied odds calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that actually made a difference was the more serious tools. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. The design feels very functional, let’s say — zero frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.

Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you still adds it up in their head, try it — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.

Right — been using this thing for something like six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.

What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just 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 part I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]coral bet calculator lucky 15[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What genuinely made a difference is the more serious extras. They’ve got an probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. The layout looks a bit basic — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.

Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does the job. If you even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

Right — been using this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.

The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.

Their single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and you get returns straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]4 fold bet calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability converter that shows what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. The layout is a bit basic — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.

So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. If anyone still does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
