So — been on this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am based in the UK, generally do football and 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 never could get my head round what an e/w return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the one I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get returns with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com]single odds calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

What actually made a difference was the geekier bits. The implied probability converter which shows you the overround, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m spreading across selections.

It’s not perfect mind. Its design feels a bit basic — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine though the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s no app, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.

Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, for context.

The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and you get the return straight away, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/double]double calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

One thing that actually changed how I bet were the geekier extras. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.

It’s not perfect mind. The design feels a bit basic — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine but the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.

So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, for context.

How I found it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an ew return actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get returns instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]no-vig[/url] — free, no signup.

One thing that really made a difference were the more serious extras. There’s an odds-to-probability thing which shows you the overround, plus a kelly calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. Its design looks pretty plain — not much polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable although the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
