Am interested in this. Why would 12bet offer such low limits. Have they always been known for lower limits? I was under the impression that they were in the same range of books like 188bet or SBObet that take very large action. That isn't the case?

I wouldn't fret over it right now as the season has just started, wait till it's full swing then you can go over the limits and whatnot arguments. The limiting is probably a currency control and the inconsistent jump of max bet is probably due to the daily timing. I believe most asian books offer low limit early in the day and will increase them a few hours before kick off.
I personally think that as a serious sportsbook they should not offer high betting limits, what they should be doing is balancing the book, making profit from margin. The higher the limit they offer the more dangerous position they have to take, good example is pointbet several years ago when they went bust because of their high limit and couldn't hedge out balances, thus taking unnecessary risks.

For a long long time Asian books did not discriminate between squares and sharps, but this has all changed now.
