I'm using a spreadsheet that places a back bet a few seconds before the race off time which when matched then places a lay bet and keeps the lay in running. My back bet odds minimum is set to 2.0 but I find if this is not matched (say the horse is 1.3) it then keeps the back bet in running which then can get matched in running probably because the horse is not going to win.

Is there a way I can cancel the back bet if it's not matched at the off but, if it is matched, keep the lay bet in running?

Are you using the -Tn modifier to place the back bet?

Err sorry Gary I don't understand. It's actually a sheet you modified for me to get it working a year or so ago and I've only just noticed this problem.

I'm afraid I can't answer without knowing exactly what the spreadsheet currently does. If you email it to admin@gruss-software.co.uk I will have a look.

I know when Aus races first started in-play betting i was getting a similar problem because any bets triggered after the start would place the bet in play, i have to set up a switch to turn in play betting off or on could be a similar problem, you might have to set up a condition that if the bet is not matched it turns off triggers.

I got your spreadsheet and have just sent a reply. It was simply a case of using -IPC instead of -IP so that the back bet is not placed as a keep bet.

Got it thanks, Gary.
