Remmy358 had a very good thread about the limits at the greek

*http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...ek-limits.html

BIGBOYDAN summited a very useful link that list all the limits at the Greek,witch i have printed.
However there is something witch i am not sure off,the great books like :
PINNACLES,WSEX,THE GREEK,BOOKMAKER & DSI
are well known for NOT ONLY taking big bets or at the very least in the case of BOOKMAKER and DSI will take 5k with their eyes close AND NEVER ONCE COLLAR YOU IF WIN!!
So therefore can one just assumethat if these PREMIER books take the big bets that they do without f*cking around,That it only goes to reason to ASSUME that if you go through a big time losing streak and watch a Bankroll that would have double in size only to drop to let say 15% of it's original starting point,
that these books would allow one not only the right to make a come back but also move forward as it is possible to do with the EXCHANGES?
or would they "go British on you" by either shutting your account down PERIOD or collar you with LITERALLY a 2.50$ LIMIT as BET 365 does?

BIGBOYDAN if you are there can you answer this?
Otherwise let ANYONE with the knowledge do so.

To answer your question on this subject in a nutshell sorta speak. I have heard that those books will limit you to maybe a dime and or put you on a delay. In some cases they might just do both (Wsex I know has been known to do that before).

Now as far as collaring one to next to nil goes at those books, It's a very rare case. However, It does happen to some people if they have been warned about arb'ing. (can't remember the posters nick offhand, but he was booting from TheGreek for it).

[Ball Rash]

not sure what the question is but if you have to call in your bets at some books it all depends who's behind the wheel of that ship at the time of the bet that will decide your limit, even though they might have told you up to ......K is good....not going to go into detail of what the limts are or which book

on the internet you basically bet what the book limits are and people rarely get a collar put on them unless they always come in right at post time hitting the book for the limit and not giving the bookie time to work that bet

[bigboydan]

Your 100% correct BallRash on the online limits apposed to phone wagering limits. I mean even books like Bet365 will give reinstate your limits that were slashed online if you phone in your wagers. Now grant it you will bet a bad line and all, but never the less... They will book it.

So Danny,
I guest the only way to protect oneself fully is to:
1)Have exchange accounts in:MATCHBOOK and TRADESPORTS(I wish BETFAIR would post their lines in american odds rather than that fraction/decimal garbage)that i would use them too ,for now i stay away

2)If you are going to have accounts in those books witch i believe is inevitable if you want reach to next level,than the best policy is to call your profits at the end of every week-end for the NFL and leave only in the account what you need to cover your betting limits,for the following week-end.
HOWEVER YOUR TOTAL BANKROLL should kept "in your mattress"
instead of sending all of it to the book,so if you go through a loosing streak your money is your hand as if you where in Vegas and you send to the book the among that is in accordances to you betting strategies:
For example:
IF you have a NFL bankroll where you bet:25k with that book per game,you bet 3 games,that is 75k per wk-nd.Let say you want to cover 10wk-nd =your total NFL bankroll would be 750k,right.
You do not send 750k to the book because if you where to go through a losing streak cause not only by your NFL bets but also by hockey(or NBA) betting during the week and if you have a bad spell that would cause your bankroll to go from 750k(or more) to 175k( or lest),than the book regardless of whom they are would probably F*CK AROUND,right?.Where as if the money is in your hand and you send what is needed to cover your limit or what ever the among would be in order to mount a recovery after a losing spell than that way you won't need to worry about anything.It would be like betting in Vegas.
I do understand though that you are only allowed a certain among of withdrawals per month and charge is applied if exceed it.however for that peace of mind i think it's worth it and beside howmuch can it be?

[bigboydan]

For the most part every book out there will try and slow down your winning in some type of fashion. I mean if it's not cutting your limits it's putting some type a delay on you. Thats why I love exchanges like I do. Because you are pretty much in control really as long as you have enough to cover what you want.

On a side note... If I were you I'd learn the decimal odds. Because Betfair is a goldmine if you use it to your advantage.

Danny,i know ,i know!!!
With them as third "book"everything would be great...they have totally frustrate me with their refusal to provide US.style odds.. they have the liquidity that TS does not have even for the NHL.TRADESPORTS whom is Euro like them take the time to offer all 3 types of lines reading options,why does those BETFAIR assholes need to be such pricks?
Danny do you know where i can find a decimal converter, i tried to look for one on the Internet but i couldn't find any?

[bigboydan]

If U.S. players can't play at Betfair then I can understand why they don't have the American odds options at all. So naturally I can't fault them for that at all. Now as far as a conversion calculator goes, here is one for you courtesy of Ganchrow.
