Right — been on this thing for something like six months now and it's basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I'd chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, just so you know where I'm coming from.
What got me on it was actually a bit daft — I never could work out what an ew payout actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now type the odds in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — you put in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn't matter. There's also the fiddly ones — trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that's where I always got it wrong. If you fancy a poke about, it's over at
BBCode you used is not allowed.
and it's free with no account nonsense.
One thing that actually changed how I bet was the geekier extras. There's an implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly staking tool — I use half kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit if I'm spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The interface feels a bit basic — zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it's fine but the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. There's no proper app, just the site — fine by me but you asked.
Right, that's me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. Anyone who even now adds it up in their head, give it a go — it's saved me a fair few "wait, that's it?" moments.
