Étiqueté : single bet calculator
Right — have been messing about with this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, 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 ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in stake and odds and it shows the return straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched bets calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually changed how I bet was the geekier bits. They’ve got an probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is pretty plain — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no app, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone still does the maths on paper, try it — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for maybe four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. I’m UK based, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I could never get my head round what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/betting-margin]bookmaker margin calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What really shifted things for me was the more serious bits. There’s an implied probability calculator that shows the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design feels pretty plain — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — been using this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never figure out what an each way return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk]single stakes about bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier extras. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The design looks a bit basic — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
