So — been on this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I'd say something since a mate asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I couldn't ever figure out what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I'd just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the one I'm on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, either odds format. There's also the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that's where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it's here <a href=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/odds-converter>odds converter betting</a> and it's free with no account nonsense.
What really made a difference were the more serious bits. They've got an probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie's taking, and there's the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit for when I'm splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is very functional, let's say — zero polish, which honestly I don't mind but some will. On mobile it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. And no app, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me but worth saying.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does the job. If anyone still adds it up in their head, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
