OK — have been messing about with this thing for maybe a few months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd write something up since a mate asked me the other day. I'm in the UK, generally bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely a bit daft — I could never get my head round what an ew return actually was when the place terms changed. I'd just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns straight away, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, yankees, and that's where I always mess it up. If you fancy a poke about, it's here

The thing that actually made a difference is the more serious tools. They've got an probability thing that shows the overround, plus a kelly criterion tool — I use half kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool is decent when I'm covering two or three runners.
It's not perfect mind. The interface looks very functional, let's say — not much flash, it's clearly function over form. On my phone it works although the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. Also there's no proper app, it's a website and that's it — slight shame just flagging it.
So yeah. Doesn't cost anything, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone still adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
