single_ijPtParticipantRight — have been messing about with this thing for about four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever get my head round what an each way return would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/patent]calculate a patent bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually made a difference was the nerdier extras. The implied probability converter that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent for when I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface looks a bit basic — not much frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works though the acca grid are a squeeze. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now does the maths on paper, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
single_koPtParticipantOK — been using this thing for about six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
How I found it was actually pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/super-heinz]bet calculator heinz[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually shifted things for me is the geekier tools. The implied probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is pretty plain — zero polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On mobile it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
