Through excel or manually? As straight SP bets or as SP in play bets?

You have two options with the SP either

a) Placing as straight SP bet with the limit options i.e you're only willing to lay the bet if the SP is lower than 4 you can set your limit to 4, if the SP returns higher than 4 your bet won't be taken , any less and it'll go into the SP pool

To place a straight BSP bet just make sure Projected SP is ticked in the Preferences->grid interface ->display columns options. Then to place a bet you simply click that column and it'll pull up the bet placement screen where you can enter stakes and if you wish to place limits on the SP . Just hover the mouse to the left or right of the Projected SP column to change the colour which changes from blue to pink depending on if you want to lay or back.

b) You also have the option to place a bet into the exchange and if it's not been taken it'll convert to an SP bet at the off. Either tick the "SP In Play" tick box on the Betting Options so all bets will default to SP in play or simply tick the SP column next to the bet in the matched/unmatched bets display at the bottom of screen if you only want certain bets to go into the BSP pool


For excel their are plenty of triggers that will do all the above

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.
