Bets NOT kept at in-play
« on: 03 Dec 2012, 13:22 »
Hi,

At "Settings" -> Betting Options -> One-Click Betting I selected "Kept" at in-play, however when I put my bets they appear  as "Cancel", and in fact they are cancelled when the match starts.

Is this a bug of the bot or... of myself?

Thanks and best rgds

Hi
I just tested this in markets that support bet persistence and confirm the same behaviour as you get.

Default One-Click setting set to Keep or Take SP does not work, only Cancel works.
This applies to bets placed by the ladder interface and also the betting interface (but in the betting interface you can change the setting for each bet manually)

Possible workaround until it is fixed is to make a trigger that will immediately cancel and place the bet again with persistence.

Support / Tim please note the above.

Trying to get this behaviour too, but not succeeding so far, so maybe not doing the same thing. Please see below and correct me.

1. I go to Settings, then choose Betting Options and make sure "Enable One-Click betting" is on. I then change the value in the drop-down list titled "By default all unmatched bets should be ... at In-Play" to "kept".

2. I open "Horse Racing - Todays Card", choose any UK race from there and view the market in Brief Mode (but also did this with Race Mode). I press Shift + the current back price to place an unmatched bet on the first selection. (If I just press the betting button the bet gets matched).

3. The bet then appears in the "Unmatched Bets" and its persistence is displayed as "Kept".

4. I then tried the same thing with football Match Odds and Tennis Winner market.

5. If I do this in, let's say, a Greyhound race, the bet indeed is cancelled after the beginning of the race, because here bet persistence is not supported.

Hi Oxa
Thanks for the reply.
Yes indeed, Shift+click current back or lay works correctly with proper persistence. I missed this key combination to mention to the original poster.

Bets placed by the ladder interface do not follow the default one-click setting and are placed as cancel
Bets placed by the betting interface also do not follow the default one-click setting (but can be manually overridden)

I guess it depends how you interpret the default setting, but I’m sure your reminder of Shift+click will resolve it.

Thanks and I hope you are keeping well.

Thank you Mark,

I now confirm that the default persistence currently does not apply to bets placed by one click in the Ladder, and I am going to adjust that.

As for the betting interface, the one-click settings were not meant to include that, as the betting interface is in fact contrary to "one-click" (that's why it comes up if you turn one-click betting off). In the betting interface you are supposed to adjust each setting manually.

However I now see that to make it more convenient, the program can select the default one-click persistence automatically when the betting interface is being called up, and so the user will be able to amend that if needed. So will make the necessary changes in the next update.

Hi,

Usually I don't use the bet interface and, as MarkV said, the issue I mentioned appears using the ladder interface.

So I'll wait to the next update to see the problem corrected.

Thank you both MarkV and Oxa for you help.

Edited in 11 Dec.

Thanks a lot; I just checked this problem is solved in version 7.0.0.41
