OK — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.

The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/implied-probability]implied probability[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

The thing that actually shifted things for me were the geekier tools. The probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.

Not all sunshine though. Its layout is a bit basic — zero frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone still adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

OK — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.

How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion betting calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that really made a difference is the nerdier tools. There’s an probability calculator and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. Its design feels very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If you even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.

Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.

How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.

The single bet calculator is the one I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/patent]calculate a patent bet[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that really changed how I bet were the nerdier extras. The odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. The interface feels very functional, let’s say — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
