Right — been on this thing for something like five months now and it's stuck on my phone, so thought I'd chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I'm UK based, mostly stick to footie and the horses, nothing mad, for context.

The reason I started using it was actually a bit daft — I couldn't ever work out what an ew return actually was once you get five places instead of three. Basically I'd guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.

Their single bet calculator is the bit I'm on daily — type in the price and your stake and it shows returns instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that's where I'd always lose track. Have a go yourself, it's here bookmaker margin calculator and it's free with no account nonsense.

One thing that really changed how I bet is the geekier extras. The implied probability thing which shows you what margin's baked in, and a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is decent for when I'm splitting a race.

Not all sunshine though. Its design is pretty plain — zero frills, which honestly I don't mind but some will. On mobile it's usable but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. Also there's nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame just flagging it.

Anyway. Doesn't cost anything, barely any ads, works. If you honestly does the maths on paper, give it a go — saves me a fair few dumb bets I'd have regretted.

Right — been on this thing for about a few months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd write something up since someone asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I'm coming from.

The reason I started using it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn't ever get my head round what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I'd just guess and moan when the payout landed. These days I type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.

Their single bet calculator is the one I'm on daily — you drop in stake and odds and it spits out the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, patents and yankees, which is where most people I know got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it's here yankee odds calculator — free, no signup.

What genuinely changed how I bet were the nerdier tools. They've got an implied probability converter which shows you the overround, and a kelly criterion calculator — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent for when I'm covering two or three runners.

Not all sunshine though. The design looks a bit basic — zero flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. Phone-wise it's fine though the acca grid are a squeeze. There's nothing on the app store, it's a website and that's it — slight shame but worth saying.

Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If you even now does the maths on paper, have a look — it's saved me plenty of dumb bets I'd have regretted.
