OK — been using this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since someone asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, mostly do football and horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.

How I found it was actually a bit daft — I never could work out what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the part I’m on daily — type in the price and your stake and it shows the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-15]lucky 15[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

What genuinely made a difference were the geekier tools. There’s an odds-to-probability thing that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.

Not all sunshine though. The layout feels pretty plain — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

Anyway. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saves me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

OK — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.

The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an each way payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in stake and odds and you get the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/odds-converter]sports betting odds converter[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.

What actually changed how I bet were the geekier extras. The implied probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.

Couple of gripes. Its interface is very functional, let’s say — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it’s fine but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.

So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. If you even now does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
