ParticipantPublicRight — been on this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. I’m UK based, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows the return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]how many bets in a super heinz[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really made a difference were the geekier tools. There’s an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one is decent when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface looks a bit basic — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine but the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.

ParticipantPublicRight — been using this thing for something like five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out returns straight away, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that’s where I always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-63]lucky 63 bet365[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really changed how I bet was the nerdier bits. There’s an probability converter which shows you how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface feels very functional, let’s say — no frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
