    So the consensus here is that Pinnacle neither boots you or limits you when you are a consistent winner? Is that true according to your experience?

    Pinnacle has no problems with winners. Their business model is predicated upon having access to them.

    Somewhat wrong on The Greek.

    Very wrong on Bet Jamaica.

    Although if you're making sucker / stupid bets and still winning, you can likely play at both places for a very long time.

    I am limited severely on European Volleyball with Pinnacle!
    Donīt really know why, when I was betting in these markets (not huge stakes to begin with) I was down GBP 400+ to Pinny.

    On the whole though, they are a teriffic bookie.

    SBOBet have never limited me, neither have 188Bet or BetJamaica.

    For non-US sports, BetFair (by far the biggest/best exchange) offers pretty much unlimited liquiidity and have no reason to limit winners, but if you are expecting to win 12 pct month-on-month, be sure you are very familiar with "Premium Charge".

    I think you are very wrong on Bet Jamaica. If they limit you on your account, let me ask you this first. How much money did you win from them?? The reason why I am asking this is because I won substantial amount of money from them in a short period of time and they never limit me or closed my account. since then, I am up and down from them(about even or at least made couple of thousands from them) and they still have same limit for me.

    I was one of a number of people who got put on a 60-second delay about 3 or 4 years ago at Bet Jamaica, and no bets were allowed to go through without a line change. It didn't matter whether it was 3 in the afternoon or 3 in the morning ... whether the bet was for $2,000 or for $250. And they weren't steam bets either .. they were good numbers, but I didn't bet them during any "moves".

    I tried about 15 bets in a row, and all 15 were rejected with the "line change" message. After 15 in a row were rejected, I guess I finally got the message and decided to stop banging my head against the wall, so I withdrew my balance.

    I'm not sure how much I was up overall, but I would guess low-to-mid 5 figures.
