So — been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — 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 used to just wing it and get a shock. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/each-way]each way bet calculator william hill[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really changed how I bet were the more serious tools. They’ve got an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The interface looks a bit basic — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If you honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
