So — have been messing about with this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.

What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I could never get my head round what an ew return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the part I open most — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]how to do matched betting uk[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

The thing that really made a difference were the nerdier bits. They’ve got an implied probability converter that shows the overround, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. Its interface is a bit basic — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.

So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If anyone still does the maths on paper, try it — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

So — been on this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.

How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I never could work out what an e/w payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly stake calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that actually shifted things for me were the geekier bits. The probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.

Not all sunshine though. The interface feels very functional, let’s say — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
