OK — been on this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, for context.

What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an each way return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just wing it and get a shock. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out the return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter]betting converter[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.

What genuinely made a difference was the more serious extras. The probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.

Not all sunshine though. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — fine by me but worth saying.

Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
