Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.

What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/implied-probability]how to calculate implied probability with fractional odds[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

What really changed how I bet were the geekier bits. There’s an probability converter that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m spreading across selections.

Not all sunshine though. The interface looks pretty plain — zero flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.

Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — been on this thing for something like four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.

The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.

The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]treble bet calculator[/url] — free, no signup.

The thing that really shifted things for me is the geekier tools. The implied probability thing that shows the overround, and a kelly tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.

Couple of gripes. Its interface feels a bit basic — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s 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 even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saves me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.

OK — been using this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.

How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.

Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/treble]what is a treble bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

The thing that actually shifted things for me is the geekier extras. There’s an implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.

Not all sunshine though. The design looks very functional, let’s say — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.

Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
