#38wtf - their horse odds on the middle-of-pack semi outsiders go stale, not get updated, still will take bets at those levels, and they'll cripple your account after hitting them a few times.
but I mistyped, instead of overs I meant 'goal' or 'both to score' whichever parlance you want to use ... can almost always dutch 365 against expekt on goal/no goal for ~2% on at least one or two matches a dayComment -

#40Absolutely pointless post, do all punters only use oddschecker? I dont think so, betfair is an exchange so the more anyone bets the more commision they receive so its in their interest to have unlimited bet size. Bet365 is a good book, but anyone will be eventually limited there and normally fairly quickly if you are a savvy punter/arber, even with small.medium size bets. 3000/4000 bets.......what currency rupees? Ha! You have got to be avin a complete giraffe.

#44Why do you find it hard to believe that many people are very limited in the amount they can bet, to the point of being worthless? If you really do get huge bets on at Bet365 then the best of luck to you, there must be a specific reason you are allowed these kind of bets as very few UK bookies would ever allow such a bet without it being immediately referred to a senior trader thus highlighting your account, unless you are taking very poor value odds/lines, this would normally be another reason to be severely limited.

#46Not trying to be rude dude, its just that compared to the majority of everyone else on here or any other forum, your post is barely credible,Why do you find it hard to believe that many people are very limited in the amount they can bet, to the point of being worthless?

I dont bet every day for few thousands bets but really never had a problem with placing bet. Sometimes said something like:you reach limit,your request is sent to trader to confirm or decline(not this words but this meaning). And all the time accept.
Maybe because i dont have any strategy when im betting they dont limit me. I will see maybe some day soon they will limit me. Im limited only at bwin,and this is my only example.Comment -

#51LoL, we can't even compare Betfair with Bet365. It's like comparing Apple and Amiga, lol.
You can't make trading in Bet365. Betfair offers lots of trading/scalping opportunities.
Bet365's bookie margin is higher since it's a sportsbook. Betfair is a betting exchange.
Bet365 is for recreational bettors.
However, I must admit that Bet365's betting options are very very large. It's very impressive but still we can't compare it with Betfair. %98 of sports bettor lose over the long haul so %98 of betting public don't have limit/slow pay problems.Comment -

#53actually Yobin there are dozens of opportunities a day where 365 is above Betfair (and above the rest of the market).
they have way too many lines and props to keep an eye on, hence their need to harshly limit those who pick them off as it is not too difficult to do and if they didn't they would get fleeced at times.Comment -

#54bet 365 gets the highest unique clickthrough rate from oddschecker for one reason.
nowhere else can you back a horse at 20 or 21 when betfair and the rest of the world are at 12.
nowhere else can you back 'goal' at 2.25 when betfair and the rest of the world are at 1.90.
I can go on ad nauseum, there prices are so often WELL off-market it is not funny.Comment -

#56very true blueghost, but also many/most users of oddschecker are looking at UK books and the rules/regs for the most part level the playing field in terms of payout requirements/etc/etc. oddschecker is a main tool for I'd guess 60-70% of the arbers/bonus baggers in the UK.

#59My point is with betfair, the odds are attractive at it is but they will kill you with commission when you withdraw your funds(2k avg commision $-150 on withdrawal). I'll play @ pinny anytime all the time and they'll let you withdraw no commission BS. I'll use all my trustworthy friends, relatives that i trust if they start limiting me.Comment -

The big hitters generally pay 2-3% commission on winnings and are smart enough to be able to avoid Premium Charge altogether.
I have only ever heard of two bettors (as opposed to traders) ever having been liable for Premium Charge at all. I am sure there are more than that but the simple truth is that at flat stakes you would be have to be hitting over 62% for it to be a factor.Comment -

#65I just dont understand what do i have in my life if im lying you at forum
I dont bet every day for few thousands bets but really never had a problem with placing bet. Sometimes said something like:you reach limit,your request is sent to trader to confirm or decline(not this words but this meaning). And all the time accept.
Maybe because i dont have any strategy when im betting they dont limit me. I will see maybe some day soon they will limit me. Im limited only at bwin,and this is my only example.
The simple point is that they don't see you as a threat to their bottom line as you aren't taking best regulary. You aren't following steam or arbing. You are probably betting early into big markets and they can take the opportunity to balance your bets in the market - maybe even arb them themselves so you are probably good for them.
Most here who have been limited so severely shop keenly for prices and engage in arbing. Bookies know they are not going to be profitable accounts for them so effectively boot them.Comment -

#68Bet365 is no good. As soon as I made a withdrawal, limits were reduced. Btw the withdrawal was only for 100 after having deposited 300 and losing 200. I no longer use Bet365 at all. Never have that problem with other books such as PinnacleComment -

Bet$3.65 is a UK firm and the majority of their clients European based
Soccer is THE world game and ranks just so far ahead of the rest
most Europeans wouldn't have a clue what NBA and NHL even stand for!Comment -
