So — been using this thing for maybe six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me the other day. Am UK based, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an each way return actually came to when the place terms changed. Basically I’d wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you drop in the price and your stake and you get returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting tool[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually shifted things for me was the nerdier extras. They’ve got an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface looks very functional, let’s say — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works but the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
