So — been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — type in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk]how to work out a single bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet were the more serious tools. The probability converter which shows you the overround, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface is very functional, let’s say — zero polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If you even now adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — been using this thing for about five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never work out what an ew payout actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and you get returns instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/betting-margin]pinnacle margin calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference were the more serious bits. The implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout is very functional, let’s say — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an e/w payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — type in the price and your stake and you get returns instantly, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk]what is a single bet[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really made a difference is the geekier extras. The implied probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is decent when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout feels pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it works though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
