So — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it's stuck on my phone, so thought I'd say something since someone asked me a few days back. Am UK based, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
How I found it was actually embarrassing — I couldn't ever get my head round what an e/w return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I'd just guess and get a shock. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the part I use most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where I'd always mess it up. If you want a look, it's over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/betting-margin]bookmaker margin calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
What really made a difference is the more serious extras. They've got an implied probability thing and it makes obvious what margin's baked in, and there's the kelly criterion calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I'm covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The design feels pretty plain — not much flash, it's clearly function over form. On mobile it's usable though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. There's no app, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me a load of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
