So — been on this thing for something like six months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m based in the UK, generally bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d guess and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and you get profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]how many selections in a super heinz[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really changed how I bet is the more serious extras. The odds-to-probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The layout is a bit basic — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
