OK — been using this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never figure out what an each way payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/trixie]trixie calculator free[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually changed how I bet was the geekier extras. The implied probability thing which shows you the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout looks pretty plain — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it works but the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who even now adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
So — been on this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/super-heinz]super heinz bet365[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the nerdier tools. They’ve got an probability converter which shows you the overround, plus a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels pretty plain — zero flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, just the site — slight shame just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
