OK — been using this thing for about a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I’m UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, for context.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an ew payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and get a shock. Now type the odds in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. There’s also the multiples — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]how to work out accumulator odds[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually changed how I bet were the more serious tools. There’s an implied probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its design feels pretty plain — not much polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable but the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
