So — have been messing about with this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return straight away, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/implied-probability]odds probability calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference was the nerdier extras. The probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been on this thing for something like six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m UK based, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the one I open most — type in your stake, the odds and you get profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]odds matching calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually shifted things for me was the geekier extras. There’s an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — no flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saves me a load of « wait, that’s it? » moments.
So — have been messing about with this thing for about a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/yankee]yankee bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet was the geekier extras. They’ve got an implied probability converter that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface looks pretty plain — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but you asked.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
