So — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an each way payout actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter]bet converter odds[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually shifted things for me were the more serious extras. The odds-to-probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The design is very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the acca grid are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
Right — been using this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an e/w return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com]work out single bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that genuinely made a difference were the more serious bits. They’ve got an implied probability thing that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout looks very functional, let’s say — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine though the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — been using this thing for something like five 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 last week. Am based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never work out what an ew return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com]betting returns calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely made a difference is the more serious extras. There’s an probability calculator and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout looks a bit basic — zero frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — slight shame just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. If anyone still adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — been using this thing for about six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/yankee]yankee calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What genuinely made a difference was the geekier tools. There’s an implied probability converter that shows what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The interface feels pretty plain — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
