Auto Bets in Alpha version

Postby marin71 » Wed Sep 19, 2007 7:44 pm

Hi, I wonder if it's possible with the Auto Bet feature from the Alpha version that a bet which is triggered before the off is resubmitted when the market goes InPlay?
I just want to resubmit one bet in every race from quick pick list automatically via this feature.

The auto bet feature does not work in conjunction with the quick pick list. You need create a separate auto bet for each race (use the add auto bet button). Just tick 'replace bet in play' and the bet should be placed again just after the off providing the odds match your criteria. I would be interested to hear if you can get it to work because I haven't had any real confirmation from users that they actually got it to work, but it is an Alpha version though :wink:

Important: The original bet that gets placed before the off must have been triggered by an auto bet, it cannot monitor bets placed manually, so it currently has the limitation that the criteria you set must make it place a bet before the off and the same critera will be used when re-placing the bet in play.

Please let me know if you have any problems.

I will try the autobet feature and give info how its working.

For my problem - would it be possible to include that bets which are triggered from Excel will be automatically resubmitted when the race goes inplay?

At the moment the only way to re-place a bet in play through Excel is to write some VBA code to capture the bet details, adjust the trigger odds and stake as required and clear the bet refs of the bets you want re-placing. I will consider creating a new trigger for this purpose in a future release.

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.
