What was the liability on those it did not trigger on?

For SP lay bets the liability must be £10GBP or currency equivalent or Betfair will not accept it

Yes, the £10 minimum for Lay bets is quite annoying as I place many small lay bets close to the off which don't meet the criteria, especially on longer priced runners.

Strangely , Betfair doesn't enforce this rule on Back bets where it will quite happily match a tiny bet e.g. 10p at SP.

Most of my bets (about 80%+) get matched before the off, for the remainder I use the KEEP option but set it to cancel after 30 seconds. Any longer and I feel I'm not getting value in-play as I'll get fully matched on every winner but not some losers.

That is strange, the minimum SP for a back bet is £2 so not sure how/why they are letting ones below that go through

And you can lay one penny at BFSP 1000, but you can't lay £333 at 1.03 BFSP

Yes, I've never had any problem getting back bets down to as low as 1p accepted at SP using automation. Have you tried it, Dallas?

Found the issue - It's because the horse i nominated are non runners. I sent up 6 am every morning so usually get 1-3 NR's on any day.

Cheers
