Étiqueté : single bet calculator
OK — been on this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d say something 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 could never get my head round what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]irish lottery yankee bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What really shifted things for me is the more serious tools. There’s an probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The layout is a bit basic — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you still adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-15]how much is a 50p each way lucky 15[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually made a difference were the geekier extras. The probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface is a bit basic — zero flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable but the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
So — been on this thing for maybe six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and then be surprised. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you drop in stake and odds and it shows returns instantly, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/no-vig]vig free calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really made a difference is the more serious bits. There’s an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — zero flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone still adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
