Holdem trigger
« on: 03 Mar 2012, 13:17 »
Hi all

I am totally new to x feeder, just downloaded it today, I know my method needs a trigger but I have no clues as to the selection terminology, its a very simple trigger.

At the start of each game, pre comunity cards, I want to check which hand number won last game and bet the 3 others, so if for example Hand 1 won the last game for the next game I would like to back hands 2,3 and 4

Hope someone can help, thanks for looking

There's an example trigger that does what you want here:
http://www.x-feeder.com/strategies/poker2_0/back-on-last-losers/

You can achieve the same outcome by laying on the selection that has just won instead and you can easily alter the number of consecutive wins before the trigger operates.  Just read the manual and have a play around with the triggers, it's the only way to learn.

Hi again

As I am new to this, I have been reading about recovery methods, as I already have a betting trigger what is the best way to implement, let's say the martingale where if the bankroll is behind it just doubles the bet, do I change the trigger I already have OR must I ADD a recovery trigger below it? I am guessing it has to be in the same trigger file?

Please advise.

Thanks again

yes, just add the recovery triggers before the backing or laying triggers.  Be careful with Martingale though, will demolish your bank quickly.

You can copy and paste individual triggers or a whole block, you can drag around triggers in the window to place them in the desired position.

Yes I understand that one. I was thinking of just adding 1 unit on a loss for one bet only then reverting back to original stake, not being greedy just recovering half the loss, can that be done in one block, if so can you advise how please.

Many thanks again, much appreciated

You can recover any fraction you want.  Have a look at the staking plans on the website, I'm sure there will be something suitable or that can be easily adapted.  You need to go up the learning curve, it really is very easy.  I will write actual triggers for others,  but only when it is a new idea that I've never thought of before and this is very rare now.

Totally understand mate, I have been coding bots for roulette for about 3 years, I also turn down any method/system that is shown to me on the roulette forums if I think its a flop, I hate trying to learn new coding languages GUI's but will struggle along.

If you can take a look at what I have it seems to be working, sort of, its adding 1 unit no matter what currently, but I just did it so will go back and check if I can change it, I only want it to add 1 unit once only after any loss, have I done it correctly as in the implementation of the recovery trigger, any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks again

I think this is the bit that I want to tell it to only do once, at first I only had the top one, which obviousley saw that 1 of the 3 being bet on had lost so it added 1 unit, I wanted it to anly add the unit IF all 3 lost, did I do it correclty?

In your recover conditions use:

Channels Previous PL is less than 0

In the value box you can also use a formula like: back_size/2 - this will add half of the current default back value.

You will also need another trigger to set the default back amount to minimum value after a win (if that's waht you want).

Set default back amount: value: 2
Exactly in R1
Conditions:
Channels Previous PL is greater than 0

 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
