I've heard on here you can make 6 figure bets routinely with them and in some cases, a million dollar bet. Is this true?

Yes you can, but the sum of multiple bets must be 6 figure I guess (one 6figure bet??? Not.). And every bet lowers the odds.
I have no problem with limits on NBA but 250USD in spite of 357USD on soccer is not very much! If I bet 250 I can give up next bet, because the shift of odds is huge

I don't speak foreign very well. Are you saying your max bet is $357 on a soccer game or futbol as you folks like to call it. Surely, you mean something else. That is incredibly low except by Bet365 standards.

How much do the odds change when you bet big money? Say you are betting 125K on the Pistons -6. Is it not 11/10?

Thing that I don't like about Pinny is that with their tennis openers, they usually start with a very low max limit.

I've noticed that will all books. I've always wondered how some of you guys that bet on tennis post something like you are up 18 K then gave it back or something like that. Most books I look at have max. tennis limits at anywhere from 200 to 500 dollars.

My limit on minor foreign soccer game WAS 357 at Pinny, now it is ONLY 250 (to win). Yes it is incredibly low. (I do not speak about major leagues as Premiership, Italy etc - the limits there are roughly ten times higher). Last time I betted full 357 USD, the odd sinked from 2.36 to 2.14 or something like that.
I never betted 125K on NBA and my limit was never so high.

Just bet about 160 only for the first time, then you don't change the odds too much and then immediately after that bet 250 again... ;-)

Apart from that I worry about future of profitable betting if even Pinnacle starts to limit bettors (but so far I am not sure if Pinnacle really limit players or just change general limits from time to time). :-(

Thanks, good tip. I would like to know the Pinnacle´s formula which gives line movement, player´s sharpness, amount of bet and betmax into equations. Then it would be possible to make the best strategies how to bet larger stakes optimally. I know that Pinnacle is the most transparent company, but I am afraid they are not so transparent to reveal thair econometrics models (that are I believe upgraded very often).
