Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, generally bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I never could figure out what an ew return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and you get returns instantly, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk]single horse bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout looks a bit basic — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it works although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — have been messing about with 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 last week. I’m UK based, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never figure out what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you drop in stake and odds and you get returns with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/patent]calculate a patent bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really made a difference were the geekier tools. There’s an probability converter that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface looks a bit basic — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone still adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on 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 stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you put in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]odds format converter[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that really changed how I bet were the more serious bits. The probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, works. If anyone still adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
