Betting Calculators and the right tools for the job
Just as Uma Thurman in kill bill cuts the limbs of her opponents with one blow of her finely crafted samuri sword, you'll lay the bookies to waste with your carefully crafted betting calculators and punting tools. Like a sword gives you power over an unarmed foe, the calculators give you power gainst an unarmed bookie. For example:
- Backing Calculators
Whether you're looking for an arbitrage opportunity, or you want to hedge your bets accross several outcomes, with a good backing calculator quickly and accuarately be able to assess your options and maximise your profits. For instance, with the total equlizer you'll be able to select two favourite winners you wish to back and choose a few other outcomes to break even on, and it'll calculate the best staking strategy, all at the touch of the button.
- Spread Betting (Perm / Perlay) Cacluators
Spread betting - singels doubles, trebbles, yankees, trixies, patents, heinz etc. are permutaion bets with many combinations. This means in order to accurately forecast your winning position, you need reams of paper and hours of time to calculate the possibilities, and that's just if you don't make mistakes on the way! For this kind of bet a calculator like the accumulator is a must, it performs all these calculations in a matter of seconds, so you can quickly try out different combinations of selections and find the best value very easily. But be careful, with this kind of tool, you'll soon get banned from your local bookmaker!
- Lay Calculators
No doubt the aspiring apprentice punter will have heard of the bettin exchanges or perhaps already have opened an account. Cleary betting exchanges rea very popular abd provide really good value, a chance to make some serious profits. And the best part is they let you play at being the bookie. However you'll defininetly need the right tools at you disposal to make a good book (laying odds). The Lay calculator is an excellent tool for getting the right prices, it'll give you target stakes to get matched and at the touch of the button you can raise or lower odds across the board.
- Saving your calculatrions
Whatever tools you use, it's useful to keep a record of your caclulations, because if they're working, you'll want to try it out again.(Another shameless plug) Of course, all the punters friend's memberrs calculators have a save feature.
