OK — been using this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could figure out what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in the price and your stake and it shows returns instantly, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/dutch]lay dutching calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually changed how I bet was the more serious tools. They’ve got an probability thing which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is a bit basic — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you even now does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
OK — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am UK based, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an ew payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz betting[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What genuinely shifted things for me were the geekier extras. The probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface feels a bit basic — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine although the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you honestly does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
