Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the one I open most — type in stake and odds and it shows returns straight away, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]betting converter[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually made a difference is the nerdier extras. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The design looks pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been using this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an each way payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows the return instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]american odds converter[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually shifted things for me is the geekier tools. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly staking tool — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The design is a bit basic — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it works though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, barely any ads, works. If you even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — 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 someone asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the one I use most — type in the price and your stake and you get the return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]outplayed calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually shifted things for me were the more serious bits. There’s an odds-to-probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design is very functional, let’s say — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, try it — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
