Right — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. I’m UK based, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I couldn’t ever work out what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d wing it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and you get returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]accumulator odds calculator[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually changed how I bet were the more serious extras. The probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is handy too if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout looks very functional, let’s say — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it works though the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, works. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
