OK — been on this thing for about six months now and I keep coming back, reckon I'd chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I'm coming from.

What got me on it was actually pretty stupid — I could never work out what an e/w return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.

Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most — type in stake and odds and it shows the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at each way acca calculator — free, no signup.

One thing that really shifted things for me were the more serious extras. They've got an implied probability converter which shows you what margin's baked in, and there's the kelly calculator — I use half 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 is very functional, let's say — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it works though the acca grid are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me but worth saying.

So yeah. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a fair few arguments with the bookie.

OK — been using this thing for about four months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I'd write something up since someone asked me last week. I'm in the UK, generally bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.

How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could figure out what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I'd wing it and moan when the payout landed. These days I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the part I'm on daily — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that's where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it's over at odds converter betting and there's no login wall, which I appreciated.

What really shifted things for me were the geekier tools. There's an probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, and a kelly staking tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I'm covering two or three runners.

It's not perfect mind. The design is a bit basic — not much flash, which honestly I don't mind but some will. On my phone it's usable although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There's nothing on the app store, it's browser only — fine by me just flagging it.

So yeah. Doesn't cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe four months now and I keep coming back, so figured I'd say something since a mate asked me last week. I'm in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I'm coming from.

What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I'd just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I stick my stake in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I'm on daily — you drop in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that's where I'd always lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it lives at accumulator betting calculator and there's no login wall, which I appreciated.

The thing that actually shifted things for me is the nerdier extras. There's an probability converter and it makes obvious how much the bookie's taking, and there's the kelly staking calculator — I run quarter kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is decent if I'm spreading across selections.

Not all sunshine though. The design feels very functional, let's say — zero frills, it's clearly function over form. On mobile it works but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, just the site — fine by me but worth saying.

Anyway. Doesn't cost anything, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who honestly adds it up in their head, try it — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
