Right — been using this thing for about six months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so thought I'd write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. Am UK based, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.

How I found it was actually embarrassing — I never could get my head round what an ew return actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before I place anything, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. There's also the multiples — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that's where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it's here dutch betting calculator and it's free with no account nonsense.

What really made a difference was the more serious bits. The implied probability converter and it makes obvious the overround, and there's the kelly staking tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I'm splitting a race.

Couple of gripes. The design looks very functional, let's say — no frills, it's clearly function over form. On my phone it's usable though the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There's nothing on the app store, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me just flagging it.

Right, that's me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who honestly works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — it's saved me a fair few dumb bets I'd have regretted.

Right — been using this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I'd chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. Am UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.

How I found it was genuinely pretty stupid — I never could get my head round what an e/w payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I'd just guess and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a simple single bet.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you put in stake and odds and you get returns straight away, either odds format. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles maths, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, and that's where most people I know mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at work out lucky 63 — free, no signup.

One thing that really changed how I bet were the nerdier bits. The odds-to-probability thing and it makes obvious how much the bookie's taking, and there's the kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator gets used a fair bit if I'm covering two or three runners.

It's not perfect mind. The layout feels very functional, let's say — zero frills, it's clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works but the acca grid are a squeeze. There's no app, it's a website and that's it — doesn't bother me but you asked.

Right, that's me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, try it — it's saved me a load of "wait, that's it?" moments.
