OK — been on this thing for maybe four months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I could never work out what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]acc calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that genuinely made a difference was the more serious tools. The odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The layout feels very functional, let’s say — not much polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, works. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of arguments with the bookie.
