Pinnacle does. SBO and IBC do as well if you bet through an agent.

True although at Pinnacle, the lowest limits I've seen are 25% of a base account. Sbo and Maxbet have never limited a personal account as far as I know.

I have only bet big at two books. But from what I have seen there is truly no limit. Just a limit on a specific line. For example if said limit is 10,000 and you wanted to bet Pats -7 vs Detroit...you could still bet another 10,000 on Pats or more but it would be on pats -7.5 or 8 The line would move depending on how much more you want to bet

Do you have any reliable evidence for this?
I read every single post in this forum and have never seen a claim of this I think has been reliable
AFAIK they still operate the way they always have done. The limit you get when you open an account is as low as it will ever go.

Nope, no evidence in that entire thread of Pinny limiting normal accounts past base. Only on agent accounts. Alfa is confused.

Why do people say Bookmaker doesn't limit? I was about to open an account there because I heard they don't :/ Are you using agent accounts on those books?
With all due respect to Alfa I am not convinced by that. I don't think he is sure himself, and I'd expect others to have chimed in if they thought they had the same experience to confirm it.

My last post actually says I don't think my personal account got limited...but there are some serious discrepancies in the agent account limits.

Pinnacle reduced the starting highs in bets on tennis (main tournaments ATP and WTA) two weeks ago from $ 250 to $ 100. Not to me personally, but to all. I wonder what is it connected with? Are their deeds so bad?

I have been looking for a US facing book with good limits. I tried the agent route which was ok with one company. I also liked Asian connect but they became subject to this agent/book 50-50 risk thing. So then the limits weren't as good. Then they dropped matchbook. Is Bookmaker the only out for a US guy looking to go direct to a book with good limits? Is that where we are at? I do like Bookmaker but never hurts to have other options too.
Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday.

I don't know about sbobet but i can vouch for bookmaker and pinnacle. And when we are talking about not limiting, we are talking about major markets. If you follow a service like bettingresource that uses compounding strategy with their money management and picks, accounts with pinnacle or bookmaker are must. Other books will either ban you or limit you to pennies. Pinnacle and bookmaker are also very fast with large withdrawals. Never had an issue with them. Once in a while you will see people complaining about them but those are people that rarely win and making a withdrawal of significant amount for the first time and they don't have the patience to wait through the verification process. Some also complain about pinnacle because they deal exclusively via email (phone option is available for some, but most will never get there or find out) but they are still one of the best books in the industry along with cris/bookmaker.
I never used SBO bet but from what i learned is that they are pretty much same as pinnacle and huge in asia.

I don't know why bookies limit people at all. If a bookie sucks in a market all he needs to do is increase juice. Even cowardly Pinnacle charges outrageous 6.7-8% juice in soccer over/under markets in 2nd tier leagues, because apparently doing the maths on goals scored and conceded for both teams is too hard for their line makers.

the lower the league, the greater the margin - it is no wonder the book in the Pinacle. In the Low Leagues there are Matches Miracles: -)

Is Brazil B a low league? Juice on the Under is usually 6%, that's unbeatable.

Sorry might be a newb question, but what does betting through an agent mean at a book? I know what an agent is for a credit shop, but what is one for betting at like BM or Pinnacle? Is that just like some sort of 3rd party if your not allowed to bet there? I would never do that but just wondering.

Yes. Online agents have a relationship with books where they offer "anon" sub accounts. They earn a commission for handling the money transfers and customer support basically.

Pinnacle limits on Spanish Tercera now 300 euro max and sometimes 150 pre. The lines are coming out later than ever now too.

Betfair/Matchbook. I keep hoping a good exchange returns to North America. Pinnacle has limits, but they are large enough that they don't impact me.
