Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like a few months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d say something since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I never could figure out what an each way payout would be once you get five places instead of three. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. There’s also the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that’s where I’d always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/lucky-15]how to calculate a lucky 15[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the more serious extras. There’s an implied probability thing that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too for when I’m spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. Its design looks a bit basic — not much frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Anyway. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. If you still does the maths on paper, have a look — it’s saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
