Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — been on 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 the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an e/w return would be when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — you put in the price and your stake and you get returns instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/trixie]ew trixie calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually made a difference is the more serious tools. The implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The design is very functional, let’s say — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it works but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — you put in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter]gambling odds converter[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely changed how I bet were the more serious tools. The odds-to-probability thing which shows you the overround, and a kelly calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is pretty plain — zero flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
