Default SportsInteraction question

So I've been hitting about 70% on SIA.

I here they kick people out of their book if they win consistently.

Its unlikely but if my luck were to continue do you guys think I would be ok as long as I stay away from parlays and the moneyline.

What book could have a problem with a bettor who does nothing but take sides.

thanks for any feedback

I've read the posts where people said that they automatically boot a player if they win 10 dimes, but I don't believe it.

I'm sure most posters will agree that SportsInteraction is a very strange book really. Everything will be fine for a long time, and then BAM! You will wake up one day and they have screwed you. They kinda remind me of sportsbook.com when it comes to advantage players, because they feel they are cheaters.

bbd,
Thats my question...if im not taking full advantage(i.e parlaying, betting money lines, playing the spreads at their highest/lowest), am I really an "advantage player"?

I emailed after my last win streak and asked a csf this very question.

The csf stated that it is up to lines department but is very rare. I thanked her and had the transcript emailed to myself.

If anything fishy happens I will definitely keep SBR updated.

I found this site recently and it has been a tremendous eye opener.

At times I feel like I'm reading stories straight out of the history channel special Taking Vegas. Alot of people try to get away with some real head scratchers and then cry foul. At other times these books are complete scams.

I used to be with sportbook and was lucky enough to win the fantasy football contest for 3500 which they paid promptly and wired to my outside account just as fast. I was with them last winter and taking pretty regular withdrawals until I hit a real cold streak which must have come just as their ability to pay went out of the window.

appreciate your help

Sportsinteraction is great for especially major golf tournaments and all golf in general.They will give outrageous odds on fringe players,great odds on capable players etc.During tourneys like the masters I will play a basket full of golfers from 250-1 to 1400-1 odds.Just small bets mind you but it seems like a couple are always in the hunt on the last day.Makes the tourneys fun to watch.There really aren't bad golfers out on the tour and on any given day,a guy you never heard of can beat Tiger Woods handily.

disciplining myself to stay 400 and below

do you think that will keep me off the radar

I like their dog lines and dont want to get greedy and take money lines or parlay bets if thats going to get me kicked out.

I figure since my percentage is obscene in college hoops I can stand to leave some money on the table and not take full advantage

Again, thanks in advance for any help you can give

I mean if your not betting steam chasing or anything like that. I would lead to believe you will be fine, but who really knows what to expect out of SIA.

With all non top level books you want to stay under the radar. A good player will do that. I also try and keep minimal balances there in case they decide to do whatever. I'd rather lose 2K to a book theft than 10K. With these books once I get to 3 or more I withdraw back under 1K. If I blow that out I deposit 1K.

Default Hey aszzzbrokerman...........

I have been with Sports Interaction since late 2001. I didn't really start betting with them until 2002. In 2002 I think I made them go into shock. I bet $56 and won $272,160.00 CAN. But, I didn't read their rules etc.....In any 7 day rolling period the maximum allowed to be won is $100,000.00 USD or equivalent in other currencies. I was happy that the exchange rate was high. So, I received $172,000.00 CAN. They did a bank wire transfer to my account at Canada Trust (Old Toronto Dominion Bank). That same week I won over $20,000.00 profit in 7 point teaser tickets, but couldn't claim them. I made over $450,000.00 that NFL season total. Profit was roughly $300,000.00 CAN and they paid me out, as not once did they screw me over. I won more in 2003 then I went on vacation in 2004. 2005 and 2006 they dropped my maximum bet down by 25% and last year I won $33,000.00 in week #1 of the NFL. $26,000.00 profit off of 2 unreal tickets. I took $20,000.00 CAN out via cheques. I had to take out 5 cheques, as the most allowed on one cheque was $4800.00 CAN and now I think it has dropped again. Now I think it is like maximum of $3500.00 per cheque. Since I won large in week #1 they dropped me down to 50% maximum limits. I am fine by it I guess. One thing though is they have always paid me out. Reading all of these posts I feel relieved I never had any problems with them. Overall, SIA has the easiest layout to follow and the colours are perfect. I will stick with them un til they screw me over and I hope that will never happen.

Default Thanks treece and rake922........

My website is okay. My first one looked like a kid did it, but that was my first ever. My new one is still going under construction. I know like 0.001% of Dreamweaver. I still am trying to figure out how to do drop down menus.....lol. I can't wait until the NFL!!!! Once the NBA and NHL playoffs are done we get nothing but MLB..... .....Then the CFL .....lol.....I talked to SIA in live chat last night and they told me that I am still at 50% maximum bet limit. I told them I am fine with it, as they have never screwed me over. I then asked what is the lowest possible and they said that some people get dropped down to 10% maximum bet limit. Which I hope never happens to me. What sports do you both like betting on?

Default Hey raiders7 2002 go to my site and see the winners before you talk smack.........

Maybe you should go see my winners from SIA or maybe contact them before you assume things. Kinda funny how all the bad mouths on here are the worst bettors around. Venting their pathetic losses on smart bettors. Also, go see my cheques from the British Columbia Lottery Corporation. Think those are BS? Call them and ask them who I am. Call the Richmond, B.C., Canada branch on Shellbridge Way. If you refuse to do research then maybe you should learn how to shut up.

I love the layout on Sportsinteraction. They should be graded higher in my opinion. Only downside that gets me is that -140 on 7pt teasers, I play these often just not here. Win odds are always good here however..

SIA will cut winners and then ban them. Their risk management practices are very weird which is what causes the problems they have with this. So people aren't really treated similarly. I wouldn't really accuse them of "stealing balances" like sportsbook does.

Hey raiders72002 here is proof. You said I was bullshit...........well here you go....Like I said. Never assume things. Only the weak minded do that.



I quoted $172,000.00 above. I am sorry. The exchange rate was for $162,000.00 CAN back then. I was off by $10,000.00.....I looked at my screenshot after SIA adjusted my winning amount from $272,160.00 to $162,000.00 CAN.
