OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I could never work out what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out the return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]student matched betting calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really changed how I bet was the nerdier bits. There’s an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout feels pretty plain — not much frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, barely any ads, works. If you still adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
OK — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
How I found it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an ew return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return straight away, either odds format. There’s also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, 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/trixie]free trixie bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference was the geekier extras. They’ve got an odds-to-probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — fine by me but you asked.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a fair few « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — been on this thing for something like four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]free matched betting calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier tools. The probability thing that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its interface is pretty plain — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
