OK — been on this thing for something like six months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I'm UK based, generally do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I'm coming from.
What got me on it was actually embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an ew payout actually came to when the place terms changed. Basically I'd guess and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the bit I'm on daily — you put in stake and odds and you get the return straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that's where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]yankee bets[/url] and there's no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely changed how I bet was the more serious extras. There's an probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly staking tool — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is handy too when I'm splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is very functional, let's say — no polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it's fine but the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there's nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn't bother me but you asked.
Anyway. Doesn't cost anything, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me a load of "wait, that's it?" moments.
