OK — been using this thing for maybe six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I never could get my head round what an ew payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. Basically I’d eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — type in stake and odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. There’s also the fiddly ones — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s here [url=https://single-calculator.com/bet-calculator/kelly-criterion]kelly calculator betting[/url] — free, no signup.
What actually changed how I bet is the nerdier tools. The odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
It’s not perfect mind. The interface feels a bit basic — not much polish, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it’s saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
