Right — been using this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. I’m UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an each way return would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — type in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly strategy calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually changed how I bet is the geekier bits. There’s an probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout is a bit basic — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
Right — been using this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew payout actually came to 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 the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and it shows returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz free bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that genuinely made a difference is the geekier tools. The implied probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its interface feels a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If you even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
So — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I never could work out what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and it shows the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]free bet lay calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely made a difference were the more serious bits. There’s an probability thing which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its interface is pretty plain — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable although the bigger tables are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
