Suspend betting

A condition that pauses a system after a run of winners or losers and resumes it after another run, with two worked examples.

Suspend betting is a custom condition on the Betting conditions page. It lets a system stop placing bets after a given number of consecutive wins or losses and start again after another given run. While suspended, the bot keeps placing virtual bets at a stake of 0 so it can still see the results and count the run.

Settings

  1. Enable: the condition only works when ticked.
  2. Currently suspended: how to start. Ticked, the system begins suspended and waits for the resume rule; unticked, it begins betting and waits for the suspend rule.
  3. Suspend by meeting: count runs separately per meeting. Two winners in a row at Wolverhampton then suspend Wolverhampton only, not the other meetings.
  4. Resume betting after and Number of consequent bets: the run that restarts betting: a number, and a type of Won, Lost or Any. A bet counts as won if its profit is positive.
  5. Suspend betting after and Number of consequent bets: the run that pauses betting, in the same form.
  6. Save: applies the settings.
