Solid recommendation from me to anyone working in the area, the perspective here is grounded, and a look at nolarobond adds even more useful angles, the kind of site that becomes a reference rather than just a one time read which is a higher bar than most blogs ever reach today on the modern web.
During a reading session that included several other sources this one stood out, and a look at ravionline continued the standout quality, the side by side comparison of sources during research is a useful exercise and this site has been winning those comparisons for me consistently across multiple research sessions during the last week.
Right — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d chuck my thoughts in since someone asked me a few days back. Am based in the UK, mostly stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was genuinely pretty stupid — I could never figure out what an e/w return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. Now stick my stake in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
Their single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and it shows returns instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the bigger stuff — trebles returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, and that’s where most people I know got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at union jack trixie calculator — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely made a difference was the more serious bits. There’s an implied probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, plus a kelly tool — I use half kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutching one gets used a fair bit if I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. The layout looks pretty plain — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s fine though the lucky 63 breakdown make you pinch and zoom. Also there’s nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does the job. If you still works out returns on a calculator app, have a look — saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Looking for similar voices elsewhere has come up empty in my recent searches, and a stop at cnsbiodesk extended the search frustration, the rare site that does what no other does in quite the same way is precious and this one has clearly developed a particular approach that I have not been able to find duplicates of.
Closed it feeling slightly more competent in the topic than I started, and a stop at zz-meta reinforced that competence boost, real learning is rare in casual online reading but it does happen sometimes and this site managed to make it happen for me today which is genuinely worth pausing to acknowledge.
