Right — been on 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 based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using 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. I’d just guess and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/implied-probability]odds probability calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference is the nerdier bits. There’s an 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 terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design looks very functional, let’s say — no flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no app, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
