sp odds limit to stake not liability

Postby dgs2001 » Thu Nov 10, 2011 10:04 am

Hi All

I may be being thick here but I want to lay with max sp odds, I only seem able to do it to fixed liability.
I would like to do it to fixed stake from an excel trigger, or the grid interface.

My logic being I already know my maximum liability, and using this method my liability can only come down if the sp is lower than my max.

Unfortunately Betfair don't allow you to specify fixed stake even if you specify the maximum odds. I agree it wouldn't do any harm if they did. Maybe they don't provide this option because as you say the liability could be less and they insist on minimum £10 liability.

OK Thanks Gary

I have since realised I can achieve this with excel in a roundabout kind of way, using the odds just before the off.

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.
