Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in stake and odds and you get the return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 free bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really shifted things for me is the geekier bits. They’ve got an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The interface is very functional, let’s say — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I never could work out what an each way payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — type in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]converter odds[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference were the more serious tools. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is a bit basic — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
Right — been on this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an e/w return would be when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and it shows the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/implied-probability]betting odds to probability[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference were the nerdier bits. They’ve got an odds-to-probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout feels a bit basic — zero polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone still adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
