    WagerStreet is part of Spiro family of books which include TheGreek and BetJamaica most notably. They have no current complaints or processing issues at this time & checks usually take 3-5 business days ($35 flat Fedex fee). They are a recreational book with low limits and will collar you if you show any promise.

    I can't get more than $100 on. This is making the task of either completing my rollover or losing my balance painful.

    I have never gotten a bet of more than $100 approved, even when I wanted to bet the Patriots in the Superbowl. I tried probably 40 or 50 times to get a bigger bet approved figuring I wasn't betting a big enough market or whatever, but I finally gave up and just bet $100.

    This book goes past risk averse to where they are willing to take so little action that you have to question whether they are actually in business as a sportsbook. I mean, if I bet every game on a 10-game NBA card at $100 each, it means a whopping $50 in vig for them. How do they pay their electric bill?

    Also, their software is horrible.

    However, money (what of it there is) is totally safe and they are helpful and honest. I actually like this book a lot and would play here much more than I do, it's just that their low-rolling limits can be pretty silly.

    This a book that I have always kept in my stable. I realize their limits are small but I rarely bet more than 300 a game anyways. I love their software as I can always get a quick bet in if need be. I have had quite a few 4 figure payouts with no problems especially with Spiro backing them. Their numbers are occasionally different also and if you bet baseball a must have with dime runlines and totals if you don't mind the small limits.

    So, NFL is really a limit of $100 on the sides?

    Does anyone know what the actual limits are on NBA sides, NHL ML, and MLB ML? Not the posted limits, but actual limits from experience. I would really like to update my spreadsheet on this.

    I know I have bet 500 on a game and at least 300 with no problems. I actually forget what sport I was betting on at the time but I bet mostly NFL and NBA halves. I guess they don't consider me any threat as I have never had limits cut.
