Tennis play suspended - how do I stop multiple back bets being placed.

[manc sensation]

I have a simple Back the server bot that I have downloaded from this forum. It has worked well for me for a while now. However, today I have come home to about 8 back bets that have been matched with the corresponding offset lays (unmatched). This appears to be because play is suspended and Betfair as it in-play. So the place a back bet is triggering, but my offset is not being matched and other exit points to close trade aren't being triggered. Is there a way to stop this? If I hadn't come in when I did, this could've carried on happening until it cleared my Betfair balance I imagine.

put in a stored value for how long the score has remained as the current score.
If over a certain threshold dont place anymore bets

Add something that checks how long since the score last changed. When play is suspended the score won't be changing.

You can also use price if score is not available.

Ok thanks people. I will look into this.

You can also use 'number of unmatched bets is less than 2' or whatever
