single bet calculator
So — have been messing about with this thing for about six months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I'm in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I'm coming from.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an each way payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I'd eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I'm on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return straight away, either odds format. There's also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that's where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it's here football acca calculator — free, no signup.
One thing that really made a difference is the more serious tools. They've got an probability converter that shows how much the bookie's taking, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too when I'm covering two or three runners.
It's not perfect mind. The design feels a bit basic — zero frills, which honestly I don't mind but some will. Phone-wise it's fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it's a website and that's it — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that's me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me plenty of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
