OK — been using this thing for something like four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, mostly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I’m on daily — you put in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, yankees, which is where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk]single calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually changed how I bet was the nerdier tools. They’ve got an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its interface looks pretty plain — not much flash, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me plenty of “wait, that’s it?” moments.
