Bet Matcher Calculator
The Bet Matcher Calculator can be used to lay or dutch a range of different types of bets. The original reason for creating this was to help with laying Kwiff Surprise bets, which are a frequent source of questions by members.
You can find the calculator here:-
Bet Matcher v1.33 (LibreOffice/OpenOffice version)
Bet Matcher v1.33 (Excel version)
Here is a screenshot to show the layout of the main 'Bet Matcher' tab:-
The calculator should be fairly self-explanatory, but here is a very brief guide.
- Select the 'Bet Type' from the drop-down list at the top left.
- Select the appropriate option from the drop-down list at the top right. This drop-down list changes depending on which bet type is selected. With certain bet types, this second drop-down isn't necessary and won't show up.
- Enter the home and away teams, and the team backed (or the draw) in the respective boxes.
- The 'Bookmaker Bet' is filled in automatically, as is the 'Bet to Make', as well as up to two alternative bets to make. There will often be some notes added as well to add clarification and extra detail.
This was created in LibreOffice, but has been tested in both OpenOffice and Excel (online version). It should be fully working in the appropriate format, but please let me know if there are any issues. Here is a link for LibreOffice:-
