Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.

How I found it was actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout actually was when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.

The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/each-way]each way odds[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

One thing that genuinely shifted things for me were the more serious extras. There’s an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. The interface feels a bit basic — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.

Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

Right — been using this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.

How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — type in the price and your stake and you get returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]no-vig calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

The thing that really made a difference were the more serious extras. The probability calculator which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.

It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s usable though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m UK based, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.

The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I never could work out what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and you get returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]smarkets[/url] — free, no signup.

What actually made a difference were the nerdier bits. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is pretty plain — not much polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
