Felt the post handled a sensitive angle of the topic with appropriate care, and a look at vexaroline extended that careful handling across related material, sites that can navigate delicate territory without causing damage are rare and require a level of judgement that comes from experience rather than from following any clear playbook.

OK — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it's stuck on my phone, so figured I'd say something since a lad on another thread asked me a few days back. I'm in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, for context. What got me on it was honestly embarrassing — I couldn't ever work out what an ew return would be once you get five places instead of three. I'd just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I stick my stake in first, every time, even a simple single bet. Their single bet calculator is the part I'm on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get returns instantly, either odds format. It also handles the multiples — trebles returns, lucky 15s, patents and yankees, which is where I always got it wrong. Have a go yourself, it's over at bet calculator lucky 15 — free, no signup. One thing that actually made a difference is the geekier tools. The implied probability converter which shows you the overround, and there's the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one is handy too when I'm covering two or three runners. It's not perfect mind. Its layout looks pretty plain — no flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it's fine though the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. Also there's nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn't bother me but worth saying. Right, that's me. Free, barely any ads, does what it says. If anyone honestly does the maths on paper, try it — it's saved me plenty of arguments with the bookie.

Skipped the related links section thinking I had read enough and then came back to it later when curiosity got the better of me, and a stop at xalirobonding confirmed I should have just read it first, every section of this site appears to deserve careful attention rather than skipping past lazily.
