Sports Betting Calculators

Straight Bet Calculator

My Straight Bet Calculator will tell you the balanced house edge on a bet with only two outcomes, for example, the winner of a game. For example, consider this game to be played on 11/15/22:

  • Cleveland Browns: +300
  • Buffalo Bills: -375

The calculator tells us the balanced house edge is 3.8%. It works for odds in the European format too.

Sports Futures Calculator

My Sports Futures Calculator is similar to the Straight Bet Calculator (above), except works for 2 to 40 different possible outcomes. For example, consider the following odds for the 2022 :

  • UCLA: +178
  • Arizona: +186
  • Oregon: +550
  • USC: +975
  • Utah: +1200
  • Stanford: +1650
  • Colorado: +2000
  • Arizona State: +2575
  • Washington State: +3925
  • Utah Runnin' Utes: +4166
  • Washington State: +3925
  • Cal: +17500
  • Oregon State: +18125

The calculator tells us the balanced house edge is 20.25%. It works for odds in the European format too.
