    What is considered a "big" player to larger online books?

    Personally, I'm a pretty small player. Occasionally put a nickel or dime bet down but that's not my standard. Having said that, let's say I wanted to deposit 10 or 20 grand offshore, or even 100k just for a hypothetical situation.... obviously books will take your money, but I'm wondering how much is considered safe and will the large books pay out?

    I'm sure most big players play at books in vegas or elsewhere, but I'm just curious.

    Depends on which book. its relative

    generally max betting and calling in to increase limits will get u into the "list"

    If you're consistently betting 10+ grand a game, you're big.

    Even though their odds are juiced, dsi is very safe too.
    If I was up 20K there, I would not be concerned about asking for and receiving a payout of, say, 15K

    But I am small time, my plays are 50 dollars to 300 dollars.

    places that have 20 deposit mins. intertops, bovada, are two that come to mine.

    beted, when it was still around had a 10 dollar deposit min through ***************, loved that.

    at intertops, you only can make 1 small deposit per 24 hours, so if you make a 20 dollar deposit, and you lose your shit. The next one has to be over 45 dollars.

    With a lot of books (Pinny and a few excluded) it depends on if you win or not.

    Most books (even Bet$3.65) are happy to take massive square bets without flinching. Show any ability and they will often feel uncomfortable taking $50 bets from you.
