Right been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I'd chuck my thoughts in since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. Am in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
What got me on it was honestly embarrassing I couldn't ever work out what an each way payout actually came to once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and then be surprised. These days I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I open most type in stake and odds and it shows returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. Same tool covers the fiddly ones doubles and trebles returns, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, and that's where I'd always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at <a href=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/trixie>trixie calculator</a> free, no signup.
What actually made a difference were the more serious bits. The probability calculator which shows you how much the bookie's taking, and there's the kelly criterion tool I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. Dutching calculator is decent when I'm spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The layout is a bit basic zero frills, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On mobile it works but the lucky 63 breakdown are a squeeze. And nothing on the app store, it's a website and that's it doesn't bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn't cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. If you honestly adds it up in their head, try it saved me a fair few "wait, that's it?" moments.
