OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]bet calculator yankee[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What genuinely shifted things for me is the more serious extras. There’s an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout looks a bit basic — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me last week. I’m UK based, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way payout actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and you get returns instantly, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-15]lucky 15 calculator bet[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet was the geekier extras. They’ve got an probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is a bit basic — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, works. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w payout would be once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]acca odds[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier extras. There’s an probability converter that shows the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its interface feels very functional, let’s say — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine though the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s no proper app, it’s browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, works. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me plenty of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
