OK — been on this thing for maybe a few months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/dutch]dutch betting calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference is the more serious tools. The odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is a bit basic — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
