single bet calculator

So — been using this thing for about four months now and it's stuck on my phone, reckon I'd chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I'm in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, so take it how you like. What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an e/w return actually was with 1/5 odds a place. I'd just wing it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt. The single bet calculator tool is the one I open most — type in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. There's also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I'd always lose track. If you want a look, it lives at match bet calculator — free, no signup. What genuinely changed how I bet were the geekier tools. There's an implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie's taking, plus a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is decent for when I'm spreading across selections. Couple of gripes. Its layout is very functional, let's say — zero frills, it's clearly function over form. On my phone it's usable though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There's no app, it's browser only — fine by me but worth saying. Right, that's me. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
