Étiqueté : single bet calculator
So — been using this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never figure out what an each way payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — you drop in the price and your stake and it spits out the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched bet calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually changed how I bet was the nerdier bits. The odds-to-probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface looks a bit basic — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
OK — been on this thing for something like four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows returns straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]treble bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually made a difference is the geekier extras. There’s an odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter 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.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — zero flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
So — have been messing about with this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that genuinely made a difference were the more serious extras. The probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout looks pretty plain — not much polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works though the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone still does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
