    Default betjam limiting

    i have been with them for over 2 years and used them occasionally (win/lose 50%), but last week they limited my bets to 50 max. (from 250). not a big loss, just wanted to keep an active account for their birthday average bet promotion and they did this , a bit disappointed.

    this seems like an odd thing for an A+ book to do am I missing something here. I thought there limits were a lot higher. Are u speaking of an obscure sport of some sort?

    The A+ has nothing to do with limits it has to do with their reliability. BetJam is a recreational book so of course they will eventually cut limits if you're a winner, and eventually they'll send you to the Greek. But they are reliable so an A rating is deserved.

    Untrue, they can and do cut limits in certain markets and types of bet (i.e. props, teasers, etc.)

    No one likes to lose, surely? If you're losing with them, would you have done better making the same bets at other books with more useful lines?

    I've won at betjm and got limited to 250. I can't seem to win at thegreek unfortunately.

    for betjam, soccer is an obscure sport. their soccer lines are ridiculously stale at weekends in the hours leading up to the major leagues kicking off. in europe everybody's awake, but they're obviously not. any monkey could make money betting those lines, so no wonder they limit.

    Oh no, I bet weak numbers there on the Grammy's on Arcade Fire and Lady Antebellum yesterday and took them for about $450, I am destined to get my walking papers soon I guess.

    the only way is with book exchange. I find this terribly upsetting trend among the bookmakers. I was first irritated by bet365 and ever since I tried to go with the exchange instead.
