Right — been on this thing for something like four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I'd chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am based in the UK, mainly do football and horses, nothing mad, just so you know where I'm coming from.
How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn't ever work out what an ew return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I'd guess and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I'm on daily — type in your stake, the odds and you get profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. There's also the fiddly ones — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, yankees, honestly that's where I always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at
single calc and it's free with no account nonsense.
One thing that really made a difference were the geekier bits. They've got an odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie's taking, plus a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent for when I'm spreading across selections.
It's not perfect mind. Its layout feels a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works although the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there's nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame just flagging it.
Right, that's me. Costs nowt, barely any ads, works. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
