So — been using this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I open most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/patent]work out patent bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What really made a difference were the geekier bits. The probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is pretty plain — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Free, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — been on this thing for something like a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk]bet returns calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me is the more serious bits. They’ve got an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design feels pretty plain — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been on this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an ew return actually was when the place terms changed. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and you get profit and total return straight away, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]49s yankee bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference was the nerdier tools. The probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design looks very functional, let’s say — not much polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly 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 never could 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 stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/each-way]each way bet calculator double[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually made a difference is the geekier tools. There’s an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design looks very functional, let’s say — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
