Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, for context.

How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I never could get my head round what an each way payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows returns with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/betting-margin]odds margin calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

What actually changed how I bet is the geekier bits. They’ve got an probability calculator that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. The design is very functional, let’s say — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.

Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
