So — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it's stuck on my phone, reckon I'd chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me last week. Am in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never get my head round what an each way return actually came to when the place terms changed. I'd just guess and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in first, every time, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the part I use most — you put in stake and odds and you get the return with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that's where I'd always got it wrong. If you want a look, it lives at <a>free bet lay calculator</a> and there's no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that actually made a difference is the more serious extras. There's an implied probability calculator which shows you the overround, and a kelly staking tool — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is handy too if I'm splitting a race.
Couple of gripes. Its design is very functional, let's say — zero polish, it's clearly function over form. On mobile it works though the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. Also there's no app, it's browser only — fine by me but worth saying.
Right, that's me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now adds it up in their head, give it a go — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
