Hi. Newbie alert
I have looked and searched for reference to placing a bet in the horse racing place markets but to no avail. Also, when i have checked the automation system rules lists, I can find no reference to this either. Can anyone enlighten me.
Kind regards
Mike

Not quite sure what your problem is. The "Place" market is just another "Market" and so it's covered in the guide / automations etc as any other market is?

Is it you can't find a way to load them up?

I think the point is that there is no 'condition' for betting in a place market. That is because BF has both win markets and place markets. You need to load the correct market in the first place. You can't load the win market and then bet in the place market.

Hi
Thanks for the support. Have now found the place market and created a rule for automation, hopefully it will work. Have also dreated a win rule. I suppose what Ireally wanted was to hopefully create a rule to cover both to use the 80 / 20 betting system
Kind regards

There's a condition called 'market type condition'. This allows you to appropriate specific actions against only a specific type of market.

So you could use this if you want to apply a different action to 'win' and 'place' markets when using the same rules file on a combined list of markets.

Hi
Really appreciate the detailed reply. Possibly a little over my head at the moment. Have started to work my way through the acadamy hopefully, to gain insights about the system. I have managed to auomate my 80 / 20 system albeit with two seperate simple rules.
