Right — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, for context.
The reason I started using it was actually embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns straight away, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/dutch]dutch calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier extras. The implied probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout feels pretty plain — no polish, 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 make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, give it a go — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been on this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]how to work out an accumulator bet[/url] — free, no signup.
What genuinely shifted things for me were the more serious bits. The probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface looks pretty plain — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
So — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]what is super heinz bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really shifted things for me were the more serious bits. They’ve got an probability calculator that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout looks very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine though the bigger tables are a squeeze. And no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
