Right — been on this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an each way payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and you get the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]betting accumulator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really changed how I bet was the geekier bits. The probability thing which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The interface feels very functional, let’s say — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s usable although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s no proper app, just the site — slight shame but you asked.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for maybe four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and then be surprised. Now I type the odds 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 you get profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com]single bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really made a difference was the more serious extras. The probability converter and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The design looks pretty plain — not much polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it works although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you still does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
