Hi, its a great thing but how come i can bet below the min 5 stake ?

I noticed that with this program i can bet as low as 1.40 ?

also if i set my minimum stake to 5 dollars would it be greater chance of all my bets being matched in the dying minutes to race

thanks

just wondering how come with your program i can bet below minimum stake?

If you can't get $5 matched then you shouldn't be entering the market. If your struggling to get $50 matched it becomes more of an issue.

I don't see any reason to bet below minium except for some greening up options when betting across the book.

We use a bit of trickery to allow bets to go in below minimum stakes. But it is actually against Betfair terms and conditions. So use it sparingly or they will feel your collar. You may want to play around in practice mode for a short time while you get used to the software.

I disagree with Peter on this one , The terms and conditions part is correct but there has to be tens of thousands of these a day when people green up , so technically they would have to feel everyones collar. I tested the football last season on the correct score markets laying certain scores across all games to work out which games to leave out , i was laying roughly 80-100 games a day all season at pennies and i never got an email , call or anything , i automated it this season at minimum stakes and its doing ok , i may have been lucky with betfair so be careful.
