OK — have been messing about with this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return straight away, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com]bet return calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really changed how I bet were the more serious extras. There’s an implied probability thing which shows you the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout is a bit basic — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable though the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If you honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. I’m UK based, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew return actually was when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually made a difference was the more serious extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design feels a bit basic — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
OK — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could work out what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it spits out the return straight away, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]how many bets in a super heinz[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference is the more serious extras. They’ve got an implied probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The design is a bit basic — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s usable but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
