Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could figure out what an each way payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I’d 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 one I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/patent]calculate a patent bet[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really changed how I bet were the nerdier extras. The odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The interface feels very functional, let’s say — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
OK — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion betting calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that really made a difference is the nerdier tools. There’s an probability calculator and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design feels very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If you even now does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — been using this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — you put in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, which is where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]horse racing accumulator calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely made a difference were the geekier extras. The odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout feels a bit basic — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been using this thing for maybe four 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. I’m UK based, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never work out what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the one I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]trebles calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually changed how I bet is the nerdier extras. They’ve got an implied probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout feels a bit basic — zero frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never work out what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/betting-margin]spread betting margin calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually changed how I bet were the more serious extras. The implied probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — not much polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works although the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, for context.
How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never work out what an e/w payout actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
