ParticipantPublicRight — have been messing about with 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 a few days back. I’m based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an e/w payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and you get profit and total return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]sports odds converter[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually made a difference were the geekier tools. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design is pretty plain — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable though the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

ParticipantPublicSo — been on this thing for something like four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me last week. Am UK based, generally 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 genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and you get returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculator excel[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that genuinely shifted things for me was the more serious extras. The implied probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The interface looks very functional, let’s say — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.

ParticipantPublicRight — been using this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since a mate asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an e/w return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in your stake, the odds and you get the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/treble]treble calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that genuinely made a difference were the geekier tools. The probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design is a bit basic — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
