Hello world!

So — have been messing about with this thing for about five months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d say something since a mate asked me the other day. Am UK based, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.

How I found it was honestly embarrassing — I never could figure out what an ew payout would be when the place terms changed. Basically I’d eyeball it and get a shock. Now I punch the numbers in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.

Their single bet calculator tool is the part I’m on daily — type in stake and odds and it shows profit and total return instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15 and lucky 63, a yankee, which is where I’d always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it lives at trixie calc — free, no signup.

The thing that really made a difference is the nerdier bits. They’ve got an probability converter and it makes obvious what margin’s baked in, and a kelly calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutch tool gets used a fair bit for when I’m splitting a race.

It’s not perfect mind. The layout feels very functional, let’s say — not much polish, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.

Anyway. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, try it — it’s saved me a fair few arguments with the bookie.
