    NZ TAB would report turnover in NZD. TAB Vic in AUD.
    That probably accounts for the variance you noted.

    Did you notice how in NZ they don't BET, they BIT instead

    90% of my bets were live bets..

    in germany there are offline sportsbooks (tipico for example) where you can bet nearly as much as you like, but unfortunately I love the nba and nba games are played when we have night...

    no, but I might have to in the future

    for the last 2,5 years I only made some kind of notes and research and used my knowledge + improvisation during live betting events

    other than live betting/ live arbing I only made soccer bets (late goal bets, corner bets and player scoring bets)

    No, bet regular lines and you will be limited/banned as well.

    This happened to me at bet365 for example.

    Never limited, but that crap book GT Bets wouldn't even accept my deposit since they knew I crushed VIP Sports. GT initially lied about the reason citing USA residency, until I pointed out NJ is not one of their banned states. Then they admitted to the real reason for banning me. So I opened an account in a friends name & won 3k. GT found out somehow, disabled my account, stole my 3K winnings, & refunded my deposit.

    In my grading system, 1 pt for worst 100 for ultimate bookie.

    BetVictor closed my account 18 hours after the first bet. (5 points, at least they let me bet for 18 hours!)
    Ladbrokes closed my account. (6 points)

    Bwin limited me to 70 dollars when I cashed out. (25 points)

    Betsafe limited me to about 1 dollar. (5 points)
    Bet365 limited me to about 5 dollars, different stakes for different games, sometimes I can bet 35 dollars!!!! (20 points, they have great live-betting)
    Betsson limited me to 3 dollars, but increased it later (50 points)

    Expekt limited me to 2 dollars. (5 points)
    888 has limited me to 8 dollars. (5 points)

    (And their system is horrible, they say stake to high, they dont say how much u can bet, 100 % cra.p-bookie)

    PAF limited me after two days to 30 dollars. (25 points)

    Nordicbet limited me to 1 to 10 dollars. (15 points)

    Betclic has limited me. (10 points)


    Sportingbet has not limited me. (50 points)
    William Hill has limited me to 280 dollars which is OK. (75 points)
    Pinny has not limited me. (90 points)
    SBOBET has not limited me. (90 points)

    You could probably make millions at bookmaker before they limited you



    The fact that they do 50 k bank wires lets you know the website is probably dealing with 100s of millions of dollars every year. I really don't know what you have to do to get limited there

    brahma, you ever been limited or banned from a sportsbook?

    i always see you talking about your record being like 8-3, 7-1, always a very high winning percentage

    No, I don't bet with big amounts. I'm a degenerate gambler and I know any money won is going to be a loss eventually when I go all in after losing 2 or 3 wagers in a row


    I'm working on bankroll management first

    They put you on a limit to budget you,

    Their theory for this is,

    If they let you bet what you want they feel you'll get in financial trouble,

    not that they care but they do care about losing your contributions for the long haul.............

    I understand. even if your unit size is small that record is still impressive. u just gotta control yourself after a loss and resist the urge to chase

    90% of players that have been limited at sportsbooks bet weak/off lines

    They are not sharp at all

    Now when i look at this long list i think the only bookies i wasn't limited are Pinny, 188bet, SBObet, BWIN (the last 1 probably only because i haven't used it too much)

    I'm running out of decent euro bookies.
    At Pinny, SBObet and 188bet, what are the current daily betting limits on major US Sports?

    So a sharp player doesnt bet a line where he gets more value than the price is.

    How does a sharp player play?

    A smart stock investor, does he buy a stock where the value is higher than the price?

    Doesnt the same rule apply for a sharp sports bettor?
