Posting Bets

Postby stsm1 » Thu Oct 06, 2011 10:19 am

Hi Everyone,

I have recently installed Gruss Software and wanted to ask the following;

I had verify bets on and the pop window came up asking me about the odds I wanted to take. I put in 7.7 and then submitted the bet. However the bet wasn't placed and there was no error message or anything. However looking at the ladder for this horse there wasn't a price for 7.7. I have also logged into Betfair the normal way and checked unmatched bets but there wasn't anything there either. Do I need to worry about this or is it just a case of Gruss not submitting the bet because this price wasn't on the ladder?

You probably didn't notice, but there should have been an error message displayed in the black bar right at the bottom of the application window. Try it again with the same odds to verify that you do see this error message. You should see "Error placing bet. (INVALID_INCREMENT)" which means the odds are not valid Betfair odds.

I had too much free time today so I tried to duplicate the issue.

Yes indeed. You should be able to see an error message displayed in the black bar.

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.
