OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m UK based, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an ew payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you drop in the price and your stake and it spits out the return instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/no-vig]no vig odds calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really shifted things for me is the geekier tools. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator is decent when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface is a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — been on this thing for about a few 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 in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/treble]betting trebles[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really changed how I bet is the more serious bits. The odds-to-probability converter that shows the overround, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design is very functional, let’s say — zero polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]betting odds converter calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really shifted things for me were the geekier tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing that shows what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
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. On mobile it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
