API wrapper Concerns
  • It must make using the API easier...it shouldn't be an abstraction for abstraction sake

  • when you get a session token - can you store it for future sessions? - what mechanism is used to retrieve a new one if the old one fails within the request/response cycle.

  • automatically close session tokens

  • should you hide error codes - or just raise them from the original api? - for example authentication fails on the client api login - I should raise an exception but what kind?

  • Should you catch API access codes and raise your own errors

Rules of Betting

Rules of Betting

  1. Do not bet on horses - Unless you are taking a gamble (100% gambling, attracts 6% tax)
  2. Prefer bets on markets with 2 final outcomes (No draws) - So avoid betting on final outcomes of test cricket and football matches (where the draw is likely). If you want to bet on football or sports with a probable draw rather choose double chance or draw no bet options. Check this double chance calculator
  3. Only bet on a sport you have played or watched for at least 5 years - it is important to enjoy watching the game
  4. Bet on mainstream markets (Team/Player to Win), the more obscure the more the risk if you have no edge
  5. If the sport has In-play betting and half time / innings', only stake half the total betting amount before the game starts. Decide whether to stake the rest at half time / innings break or when you feel there is a bottom in the market
  6. Only place bets that will double your money or more. ie. with odds greater than 1
