    What a complete joke. Looks like I've been cut down to $5 bets in all sports. 5 freaking bucks, are you kidding me? My last withdrawal was back when Trump won and bitcoin was $900 (I hate myself for selling those).

    They would not limit me. I asked them to limit me to $1 or $5 or $10. Tony said no. I'd trade places with you if I could

      5 buck limits are usually reserved for people who did something 'wrong' there. Like hitting bad lines.

      If you jump on live chat and ask for Becky or Tony, they will tell you.

          The only bad line was the Trump one, it was 50/50 at +700 lol.

          This is what got me limited I guess:

            So you were only betting 10-15 dollars a game? And they limited you to 5 dollars?

            Seems weird

              This is good advice, and maybe your limits can be bumped up. But in general, provided you aren't in the middle of clearing a large bonus rollover, a sportsbook is free to adjust limits as often as they like.

                They limited me as well and I was definitely not doing anything wrong. I spoted some obviously bad lines few times, like one time the NFL game was +35 instead of +3.5 and I didn't bet it, because I knew it was mistake on their part.

                I was betting mostly NFL with them. Some tennis as well, but wasn't really winning in recent period. my limits were something like 10$ NFL on gamedays and 1$ for most of the other stuff.

                I did went to live chat and asked for explanation why they limited me and they just said it's the decision of upper managment and its final. I asked if I did something wrong, and they just repeated the previous answer. I tried to speak with the managment, live chat support said that I should come later in the day and when I did, they said I can't speak to them and that their previous decision is final.

                    Sounds like one bad enough that they may have just limited everyone who bet it.

                    Let them know you understand the issue and ask to have the limit removed. Good chance they will if it's just a one off thing and they think you get it.

                      That sounds more like you were just too sharp for them, or maybe betting steam plays.

                      It's the $5 that is the giveaway with the OP and it being bad lines.

                        I'm not too worried about it. I bet mostly at Pinny, but also have accounts at other books. I was just surprised, as I considered 5dimes as one fo the top books before.

                          No, I was definitely not betting steam plays. Not my cup of tea.

                          But I did bet their NFL openers on monday, and then also throughout the rest of the week, mostly beating the closing lines. Didn't manage to win much money on that in first half of the season, but yeah maybe they thought that could become dangerous later on.
