Portfolio Kelly Calculator

Estimate a capped allocation across 2-15 candidate bets. This is a cautious educational tool for exposure planning, not a prediction, not a guarantee, and not a way to model correlated bets you cannot explain.

Privacy note: runs in your browser. Do not enter account IDs, ticket numbers, private sportsbook data, login details, document numbers, card numbers or bank details.

Stop gate: if this creates urgency, chasing or pressure to add bets, stop. Call or text 1-800-MY-RESET for confidential support. State-specific resources may vary.

Run the portfolio calculator

Enter 2-15 rows. Odds can be American or decimal. Probability is your own estimate, not raw implied probability.
