Go into options its in there, but this is more useful if you want to lay the field at 1.01, you could set the back odds as low as 1.01 to make sure that you will get matched at any price if that makes sense?

BTW you can alos set the stake in there so you only have to hit the horse in question you can set individual stakes on the right of the horses in back lay amounts (white box) if you have a standard figure.

More trigger questions for Excel gurus.

I have successfully mastered the trigger betting basics. [I know took me long enough - it's an age thing ]

What I want to do now is when my trigger is pulled (so to speak), say it's a back I want to submit a lay at the same time, but only if my back bet has been taken.

Anyone know how to do this and willing to put it into "numpty" for the likes of me to understand?

ps how does this trigger thing work anyway. Is there some formulae on the actual Excel sheet (if so whereabouts) or is it a code run from the proggie?

There us no way of knowing if your bet is matched from the spreadsheet at the moment. It is a feature that has been requested by many users and I believe Layit will implement in a future version

As for how it works, that's Layit's genius programming, which will, in future be using the Betfair API.

Great stuff Layit, I have a problem in that I am a complete technophobe and I need all instructions spelling out very plainly. I know you're very busy but I wonder will anyone else explain how to set the trigger betting and exactly what formulae to key in. For now I want to set a trigger to back the field when any horse reaches 1.5

Anyone give me some guidance ????

Basically you just need to have either LAY or BACK in the trigger field and it will lay or back using the odds and stake from the other two columns. You then just need to write some if/else statement to kick off whatever you want it to do.


When you say back the field I'm unsure what you want as obviously you need to specify what odds you want to back back at and you're likely to have all your losers snapped up. Layit put in a LAYFIELD option but not sure if theres a backfield option

Thanx Logged in, What I meant by back the field at 1.5 is back any horse that touches 1.5, I would also lay the field at 1.3 to lock in a profit, the lay side is easy enough but setting the trigger for back 1.5 is whats confusing me.

So what you mean is I just write back in the trigger cell , and the price ( to set the trigger) in the next column, and the minimum back odd's i will accept in the next column..

I'll have to practice on the footie in running tonight for small stakes.

the example above backing the field at 1.5 is not my gameplan it's just an exercise to practice trigger betting.

One thing's for sure, if I had my life to live over again I would definitley go to school.....

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.
