So — have been messing about with this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I'd chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was actually embarrassing — I could never work out what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I'd just guess and get a shock. These days I punch the numbers in before I place anything, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, which is where I always mess it up. If you want a look, it lives at kelly criterion calculator sports betting and it's free with no account nonsense.
The thing that actually made a difference was the nerdier bits. They've got an odds-to-probability calculator and it makes obvious what margin's baked in, and a kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I'm spreading across selections.
Couple of gripes. The design looks very functional, let's say — zero frills, it's clearly function over form. On mobile it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there's no proper app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, not plastered in adverts, works. If you honestly adds it up in their head, have a look — it's saved me a load of "wait, that's it?" moments.
