OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like a few months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 bet365[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really shifted things for me was the geekier bits. There’s an implied probability thing which shows you the overround, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. 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 lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
