OK — been using this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an ew return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and get a shock. These days I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and you get the return instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/yankee]yankee calc[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely made a difference was the geekier bits. There’s an implied probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I could never work out what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and get a shock. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out returns instantly, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]accumulator matched betting calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually made a difference were the geekier bits. They’ve got an implied probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is a bit basic — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable though the acca grid are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
OK — been on this thing for maybe six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]betting super heinz[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that really shifted things for me is the more serious extras. There’s an odds-to-probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its interface feels pretty plain — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does the job. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
