Bookmaker Navigation when placing arbs

When navigating bookmakers to place my arb bets, I use Firefox.

I keep my active bookmakers (the ones I hav emoney in) in a bookmarks folder. When I turn SBP on, I go to that Bookmark directoy and select 'Open All in Tabs', this opens all of the bookmakers in independant tabs in the one window. As they open up I press the login button, or type in the passwords where the website won't allow Firefox to remember the password.

I right click on the page and select "Reload Every" to be enabled, and reload every 5 minutes. I only do this for the bookmakers which need it. Reload Every is a firefox plugin.

I leave that window in the background while I go about all of my other online tasks.

When an arb comes up, i instantly start navigating to the sport, the tournament, then when i am on the right page I can type the name of the team/person i will be betting on, Firefox autofinds and takes the screen to that word. This way I find the bet quickly. I find both bets on each bookmaker site. I then get the bet that I will place first ready to be placed, one 'confirmation' away from placement. The bet which I will place second I then refresh, check the odds, place the bet but don't confirm....as long as the odds are still good, I confirm the first bet. If that is accepted, confirm the second bet. Pray... check the details are right....record details in my excel form, and update available and pending balances at each bookmaker.

I am talking to the creator of Vitegrity lately though. He is working on software to automate the navigation process and I am trying to help him out. Who knows, I may even come over to his software if he can beat my Firefox setup...
