So — have been messing about with this thing for something like four months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me the other day. Am UK based, generally do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I couldn’t ever figure out what an e/w return would be once you get five places instead of three. I used to just guess and get a shock. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get the return instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/lucky-15]lucky 15 bet[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really changed how I bet is the geekier bits. They’ve got an odds-to-probability converter which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is a bit basic — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it’s fine although the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And no proper app, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone still does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
