SP Bets

Postby neeeel » Mon Sep 17, 2018 10:01 pm

Hi, is it possible to place SP bets via the COM interface ? ie, the bets get placed, but not matched until the race starts and SP is settled. I cant see anything in the manual, but thought I would ask, just in case

thanks in advance

Never used it but the COM references do show a keepBetType field so I'd guess it is available

thanks, ye, I seem to remember there was some reason why the keepBetType was slightly different to the proper take-SP bets, I had forgotten about that option though, so I will look into it

I knew this:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9967&p=51110#p51110


So how do you use it? - it's a property -
something like ba.keepBetType (2)
that will change all the further unmatched bets to SP ? - for the current market ?
can these further bets be from com?

ba.keepBetType = 2

any bets after this that are placed via the com will be convert to SP bets.

If you want to place different bets, you can just set the keepBetType again

ba.keepBetType = 1

and any bets after that code has executed will be keep in play

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.
