OK — been using this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d write something up since someone asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way payout actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in the price and your stake and it shows profit and total return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/each-way]how to calculate each way bet[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really shifted things for me was the geekier extras. They’ve got an probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
Not all sunshine though. Its layout is a bit basic — zero frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
