OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am UK based, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an e/w payout actually came to when the place terms changed. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and you get returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]each way acca calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually shifted things for me is the nerdier bits. There’s an probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The interface feels pretty plain — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine but the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
