So — been on this thing for about six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never get my head round what an ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]vig calculator decimal[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually shifted things for me was the geekier tools. The odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The layout feels very functional, let’s say — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who even now adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
Right — been using this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the one I open most — type in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/each-way]each way double calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that genuinely made a difference were the geekier bits. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout is pretty plain — zero flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If you honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
So — been using this thing for about a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an e/w payout would be when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 bet365[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What genuinely shifted things for me were the more serious tools. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its design feels very functional, let’s say — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone still does the maths on paper, try it — saved me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
