So — been using this thing for maybe four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an each way return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that’s where I’d always mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly criterion calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What genuinely changed how I bet was the geekier tools. They’ve got an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its layout feels pretty plain — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no app, it’s a website and that’s it — fine by me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a load of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
