Spent a few minutes here and came away with a clearer picture of the topic, the writing keeps things simple without dumbing them down, and after a stop at ulviontrustco the rest of the points lined up neatly which is something I appreciate when I am short on time and need answers fast.
Bookmark earned and the bookmark feels like a permanent addition rather than a maybe, and a look at ieeb confirmed that permanent status, the difference between durable bookmarks and ephemeral ones is something I have learned to feel quickly and this site triggered the durable feeling almost immediately during my first read here.
So — been on this thing for about four months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m UK based, generally do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was genuinely pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever work out what an ew payout actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just guess and get a shock. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the one I use most — you put in the price and your stake and you get the return with no faffing, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it’s over at calculator matched betting — free, no signup.
What really made a difference were the nerdier extras. They’ve got an probability calculator which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too for when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is pretty plain — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it’s usable although the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there’s no proper app, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who honestly does the maths on paper, have a look — saves me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
A piece that reads as if the writer trusted readers to fill in obvious gaps, and a look at savennkga continued that respectful approach, content that does not over explain what the reader can infer is content that respects intelligence and this site has clearly chosen to write to capable readers rather than to the lowest common denominator.
Will share this on a forum I am part of where it will be appreciated by others working in the same area, and a look at plivoxgroup suggests there is more here worth passing along too, definitely a generous resource that deserves a wider audience than it probably has today across the open internet.
