OK — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.

What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an ew payout actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just guess and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 bet365[/url] — free, no signup.

What actually changed how I bet were the nerdier tools. The odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.

It’s not perfect mind. The layout looks pretty plain — no flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.

So — been using this thing for something like a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.

The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could figure out what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.

The single bet calculator is the part I open most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]free bet calculator lucky 63[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that really made a difference were the nerdier tools. The implied probability thing that shows what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.

Couple of gripes. Its interface looks pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
