OK — been using this thing for about five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, reckon I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m in the UK, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — 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 stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — you put in stake and odds and you get returns with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/no-vig]sports betting vig calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually made a difference is the geekier bits. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator which shows you the overround, plus a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout feels very functional, let’s say — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s usable but the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, works. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
