Right — been using this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter]american odds converter[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an implied probability thing which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
So — been on this thing for something like a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually embarrassing — I could never work out what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and it shows returns straight away, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]betfred lucky 15 calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference was the geekier extras. They’ve got an implied probability thing that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout feels pretty plain — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
So — been on this thing for about six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could work out what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns instantly, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/betting-margin]pinnacle margin calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really shifted things for me is the more serious bits. There’s an implied probability calculator that shows what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The interface looks very functional, let’s say — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
