Right — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter]betting odds converter calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet was the nerdier tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design feels a bit basic — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
