Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and it's stuck on my phone, so figured I'd say something since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I'd eyeball it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the part I'm on daily — type in stake and odds and it shows the return straight away, fractions or decimals. There's also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that's where most people I know lose track. Have a go yourself, it's here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/trixie]union jack trixie calculator[/url] and there's no login wall, which I appreciated.
What actually changed how I bet was the geekier bits. There's an implied probability converter that shows how much the bookie's taking, and there's the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one is handy too for when I'm covering two or three runners.
It's not perfect mind. The layout looks very functional, let's say — zero flash, it's clearly function over form. On my phone it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there's no proper app, it's browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Doesn't cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it's saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it's stuck on my phone, so figured I'd write something up since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I'm coming from.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could figure out what an ew payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I'm on daily — type in the price and your stake and you get the return instantly, either odds format. There's also the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, honestly that's where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it's here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/dutch]lay dutching calculator[/url] and it's free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually shifted things for me is the more serious extras. There's an odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious how much the bookie's taking, plus a kelly calculator — I run quarter kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent for when I'm splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. The design feels very functional, let's say — not much frills, it's clearly function over form. On my phone it's usable though the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. Also there's no app, it's browser only — slight shame just flagging it.
Anyway. Doesn't cost anything, barely any ads, works. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it's saved me plenty of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
Right — been using this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I'd write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. I'm based in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was honestly embarrassing — I could never work out what an e/w return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet.
The single bet calculator is the part I'm on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows profit and total return straight away, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, honestly that's where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it's over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/double]double bet[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that really changed how I bet was the geekier extras. The probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I'm spreading across selections.
It's not perfect mind. Its layout feels pretty plain — zero polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it's usable but the bigger tables are a squeeze. Also there's no proper app, it's browser only — slight shame but you asked.
Anyway. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If you honestly works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
So — been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I'd chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I'm coming from.
The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could get my head round what an ew return would be when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — type in stake and odds and you get profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — acca and treble returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that's where I'd always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it's here [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculators[/url] and it's free with no account nonsense.
What actually changed how I bet were the nerdier tools. There's an odds-to-probability thing that shows how much the bookie's taking, and a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent for when I'm splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its interface feels pretty plain — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there's no app, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me just flagging it.
So yeah. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone honestly works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
So — been using this thing for something like four months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd say something since someone asked me last week. Am UK based, generally do football and horses, nothing mad, for context.

It's not perfect mind. Its design is a bit basic — not much frills, it's clearly function over form. On mobile it's usable although the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. Also there's no app, it's browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If anyone still does the maths on paper, have a look — it's saved me plenty of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
