Étiqueté : single bet calculator
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I could never work out what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get returns straight away, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/betting-margin]betting percentage calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really changed how I bet were the more serious tools. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface is pretty plain — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If anyone still adds it up in their head, try it — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/dutch]lay dutching calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really made a difference was the geekier extras. The probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly calculator — I run quarter 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.
Couple of gripes. The interface is a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, works. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been using this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — type 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, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]lucky 15 calculator free[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What really made a difference is the geekier tools. There’s an implied probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface looks pretty plain — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s fine but the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, works. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
