So — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz flag calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually changed how I bet were the geekier bits. There’s an odds-to-probability converter which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface is pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, works. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
OK — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/betting-margin]spread betting margin calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely shifted things for me is the nerdier extras. There’s an probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The layout feels pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never work out what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and you get profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]how many bets in a lucky 63[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The design is a bit basic — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works but the bigger tables are a squeeze. And no app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
