Most are well aware that Bet365 limits you to hell once they see you win, but I just wanted to know:

1. What do you have to do or bet to make them limit you? Do they limit you if you consistently win lke $50? or if you win $500 every month or so?

2. What do they normally limit you to? like $50? $5?

3. When they do limit you, is it permanent?

Thanks in advance.

I lost money playing there for about 2 months and was limited to $5 I think. It was many years ago when they were a sponsor here. I have still have no idea why.

[bigboydan]

Their is a reason they're called Bet365, or should I say "Bet $3.65" sir.

[Masu485]

it's a shame. they seem to be the only book that offers live bets on almost anything.

[wangpoker]

These bookies also offer live betting on any games:

[Masu485]

thanks for that list. will look into some of them.

why does bet365 limit though? i thought consensus was that 99/100 lose long term. if a player wins a lot and then gets limited, i'd think he'd be more likely to just withdraw and be done with them instead of keep playing there to give it all back.

From my experience and the experiences of those i know there are 3 reasons why they will limit you.

1) Consistently get the best number, which is probably what happenned to Durito. Even though he was a loser their, they knew he'd beat them eventually.

2) Chase Steam. Do this even one time and they will limit you to next to nothing.

3) Win

I had no problems with Bowmans for years, but i lasted about 10 days after Bet365 took over. I was limited to no more than $20 on any major sport and $5 on any props. I should check back since it's been a while to see if that's still the case but it still was the case 6 months after i was limited. I knew one person who's limits were cut, had them magically reappear about a year later.........deposited, bet for a week and then had them cut down again. Not sure what that meant. Anyway hope that helps.

Any games and any offer? Wish I see example current set winner in tennis or in volleyball at asian bookies. Unfortunatly asian bookies have good offers only in soccer in live...

Hi there guys. I'm relatively new to betting myself, therefore the question: what is "Chase Steam"?

[andywend]

Chasing steam is waiting for major line changes and jumping on a bet before the sportsbook has a chance to change the line.

[Thremp]

No one chases steam. Its all originators.

Hello

I got limited at Bet365 after 2 months...I placed mostly single bets, and won some money (not a big sum), and got limited very fast...

[pjesnik24]

I think that it also depends on the country you come from

[lopesfiguei]

I was limited too... and i still donīt understand why... Maybe because i won some bets, but i think that they won more money whith my deposits...
So good luck and goodbye to them, thereīs another bockkies to bet on

[316316]

I just noticed that most of the bookie lowered they limits??
Why?? Maybe because they have encountering crisis in money...

[moonbeam]

In my opinion this 85 years old owner of bet365 is a bit weak in the head because of his age and because of all this blowjobs with SBR

I have been experimenting arbing between Bet365 and Betfair the last month (many small bets), not to make a profit but just to break even after Betfair commission, so I can get more turnover at Betfair to avoid the PC charge which is getting close for me.

Was hoping the money would slide back and forth between them. However, more has been going to the Bet365 side.

I know my Bet365 account is doomed unless the money shifts back to Betfair, but so far all Bet365 has done is given me a couple of small loyalty bonuses.

Itīs a real pain isnīt it. My bets/trading on Betfair have fallen by about 20pct since the introduction of Premium Charge. Like you, I need to manufacture some deliberate losses on Betfair to reduce my exposure to PC.

I have no doubt that Bet365 will limit you if you consistently beat them. Itīs not a huge loss though, Bet365 do have good coverage of markets, but if you shop around you can easily find other books with which you can do these offsets.

I know they donīt have a great rating on SBR but SportingBet also covers lots the more "exotic" bets you find on Betfair (I have an account there for about two years, no limits on anything despite a few streaks like yours with B365). For more mainstream markets Pinnacle is a must.

[vderi55]

I lasted about 7 days on Bet365. I was not winning, did make about 5 or 6 bets, not more, not arbing... They are limiting to the normal maximum bet/100 now.
