The Free Bet Calculator is the world’s leading online sports bet calculator. It’s used
by punters and bookmakers alike, to calculate the stake, return and profit for an
extensive range of bets. All of the most popular bet types are supported, including
Lucky 15, Accumulator, Trixie, Patent and Round Robin, as well as speciality bets such
as Alphabet, Magnificent 7, Union Jack and the infamous Bookies Nightmare!
Large
Accumulators and perms of up to 20 selections are accepted, with dead heat, joint
favourite and Rule 4 options providing full support for greyhound and horse racing
bets.
The Settings menu allows you to adjust the odds format and type of stake to match
your betting preferences. You can also configure bonuses and consolations, and change
how each way bets are settled to reflect your bookmaker’s rules.
To quickly analyse how
your returns may be affected by different outcomes, you can simply change the status of
selections, and recalculate your bet. This can answer many questions, such as can I
still make a profit if only two of my Lucky 15 selections win?
With over 100 million
bets calculated since its launch in 2007, the Free Bet Calculator has become a reliable
and trusted resource for anyone interested in sports betting. It’s quick and easy to
use, even for complex bets, with contextual help available via the information buttons
. New visitors may also find the detailed Betting Glossary and Help pages useful.

Selections value is automatically updated when you switch between different bet types,
if the current value is less than the minimum required for the type of bet. The number
of selections can be increased in order to create perms or, in the case of
Accumulators, to simply extend the size of the Accumulator. The maximum number of
selections that can be specified for any bet is 20, but the value is fixed for any bets
that can not be permed, such as Alphabet & Union Jack. Stake minimum: 0.01 Each Way No
Yes Number of Selections 1..20 Set Accumulator The Accumulator Fold Size is
automatically updated to reflect changes to the Number of Selections, but you can perm
Accumulators simply by reducing this value to the required fold size. For example, to
perm 4-Folds from 6 selections, set the Number of Selections to 6, and then change the
Accumulator Fold Size to 4. Accumulator Fold Size 4 Bonuses Most bookmakers add a bonus
to certain bet types when a particular criterion is met, such as all winners, but there
are often conditions attached. Many bookmakers will only apply a bonus to bets that
consist entirely of horse racing and/or greyhound selections (except ante-post). Some
bookmakers will apply bonuses to bets containing selections involved in other sports,
but they may restrict them to certain markets. Other conditions may also apply, such as
minimum odds for each selection, or a minimum unit stake. Since there are a number of
conditions that dictate whether a particular bet qualifies for a bonus, the Include
Bonus option makes it easier for you to include, or exclude, the bonus settings from
your calculations. This can be done on a bet by bet basis, without needing to alter
individual bonus settings, which are otherwise normally fixed for a particular
bookmaker. Include Bonus where applicable No Yes Selections … is displayed below a
selection number to indicate that other options are available for that selection.
Simply click the button with the relevant selection number to display a panel
containing the less frequently used Rule 4, Dead Heat and Joint Favourite options. The
available options will vary depending on a selection’s Status, and whether the bet is
each way. For example, if a selection has lost, then Win Odds is not relevant, so that
option is removed from the form. Win Odds can be entered in either Fraction, Decimal or
American format, in accordance with the current odds format that can be changed via the
Settings. … Status Win Odds Place 1 Won Placed Lost Void NR / + — 1/1 1/2 1/3 1/4 1/5
1/6 — Selection 1 - Other Options × Rule 4 Dead Heat Total - the number of participants
finishing in the same position. In the event of a double dead heat you should enter 2,
and in the (unlikely) event of a triple dead heat you should enter 3. Places - the
number of places being offered by your bookmaker for the event in which your selection
is taking part. Position - the finishing position for the dead heat. If the dead heat
is for first then you should enter 1, if the dead heat is for second then you should
enter 2, etc. Note: Places and Position only apply to each way bets. Joint Fav. Total -
the number of joint favourites, more accurately termed co-favourites if there are more
than two. Winners - the number of favourites that won the race. This will normally be
1, since a value of 0 would indicate that your selection did not win. This value will
only exceed 1 if joint favourites are involved in a dead heat for first place. Non
Runners (NR) - any favourites withdrawn shortly before the runners come under starter’s
orders. Note: These options are only relevant if you have backed the Unnamed Favourite
to win, when more than one favourite has been declared. 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50
