So — have been messing about with this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just wing it and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]acca odds calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually made a difference was the more serious bits. They’ve got an odds-to-probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The design feels a bit basic — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works but the bigger tables are a squeeze. There’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
