In Running Horse Racing Delay

Postby I'll Get Me Coat » Thu Feb 21, 2008 5:20 pm

Why is the delay when submitting bets and using BA 3 seconds but when using the website only 1 second?

Version 1.0.1.26 Beta

It is 1 second. Where does it show 3 seconds?

Blimey - that was quick.

It shows in the black bar (red font) "This bet will be submitted in 3 secs (counts down until bet is placed) this delay is imposed by Betfair"

The delay isn't 3 seconds when using Betfair Trader, it seems to be the standard 1 second.

I've found out why - it is because the bet I was entering was below the £2 minimum.

I've just tried with a stake of £10 and the delay is 1 second.

Yes, it needs 3 transactions to place a bet below minimum because it uses the 'cheat' to get the bet on.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
