Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never work out what an ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/patent]permed patent bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that really shifted things for me were the nerdier extras. They’ve got an implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The design is a bit basic — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for maybe six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and get a shock. Now type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]bet matching calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What genuinely changed how I bet is the more serious extras. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its interface looks very functional, let’s say — not much polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s fine though the acca grid are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an each way return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/dutch]lay dutching calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really shifted things for me is the more serious extras. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design feels pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
