My question is how much is the highest average wager one makes where they are still considered recreational? Obviously someone who bets $100 and under per game would clearly be a recreational player but what about $500? $1000? If someone's average bet is $1000, would they thus be betting a pretty high limit and thus professional? What if they are a loser? I heard BetJamaica takes high limits but thats only if you lose. I consider a big bet $1000 and above but i think most books even like legends allows wagers max of $500 even though that is considered a small limit to most books.
I mean bodog allows $1000 wagers on an NBA side and $2000 wagers on an NFL side and i wouldn't consider those amounts recreational and these amounts are pretty big.
What would be the requirements for one person to say ditch all the recreational books and play only at the professional online sportsbooks? Like if they were betting minimum $2000 a wager?[/color]
