Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — been on this thing for something like five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in the price and your stake and you get the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting stake not returned[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What genuinely made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design is a bit basic — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but you asked.
So yeah. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — been on this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]how many bets in a super heinz[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really changed how I bet were the geekier extras. They’ve got an implied probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface feels a bit basic — not much flash, 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. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been using this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an e/w return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]ew accumulator calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that genuinely made a difference was the geekier extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is very functional, let’s say — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
