Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like five 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 based in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an each way return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I’d always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/matched-betting]oddsmatching[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that actually changed how I bet is the more serious extras. The odds-to-probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its interface looks a bit basic — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it’s saved me a load of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
