OK — been using this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. Am based in the UK, mostly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never work out what an e/w payout actually came to when the place terms changed. Basically I’d wing it and get a shock. Now I stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator tool is the one I use most — you put in the price and your stake and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, honestly that’s where I’d always lose track. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]matched betting calculators[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that genuinely made a difference was the geekier tools. The odds-to-probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent if I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. Its design looks pretty plain — zero polish, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s usable though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there’s no proper app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Anyway. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone still does the maths on paper, give it a go — saved me plenty of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
