Right — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was actually embarrassing — I could never get my head round what an each way return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, which is where most people I know mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]bet calculator heinz[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the more serious tools. They’ve got an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is a bit basic — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
