OK — been on this thing for about six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me the other day. I’m based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just wing it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/each-way]each way bet calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually shifted things for me were the geekier bits. There’s an odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its interface feels very functional, let’s say — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works but the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And no proper app, it’s browser only — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, works. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
