So — been using this thing for something like a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never work out what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/each-way]each way calculator bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the more serious extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing that shows the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The layout looks very functional, let’s say — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
Right — been on this thing for something like a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. Am based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and it spits out returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/patent]49s patent bet calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier bits. They’ve got an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The design feels pretty plain — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s usable but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows returns instantly, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]quarter kelly calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually shifted things for me is the nerdier bits. There’s an probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The layout looks a bit basic — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
