2 questions about ps3838

That;s how betting works in PS3838.
If you bet the maxbet amount on a market that is this niche and the allowed stake is this low , you instantly kill the odd.

Keep in mind that PS3838 is "copying" the normal Pinnacle account with the only difference that the maxbet allowed on PS3838 is usually HALF (/2) of what the maximum amount on the same market appears on a normal Pinnacle account.

As far as I know it's not "illegal" to use many ps accounts with different brokers but thats really up to ps themselves if they deem it "unfair play" or not you best consult your agent/broker on this matter.

I understand they need a margin to work with. However the odd drops seem to get bigger and bigger. I was wondering if this is the same for others too (and if the limits for them are the same as well).

Some PS3838 accounts will not have the exact same odds as Pinnacle. They are a bit worse........I am sure that they can adjust the lines as they wish.....

Many years ago the owner of AC88 assured me that players could use multiple brokers to access multiple PS3838 accounts. But he also said it was not going to be any significant advantage as the accounts would be quickly connected anyway.

Don't know for sure if either of those things remain true today.

That imagine is not readable. Someone might try a cycling bet for you to compare exactly if they can see the market and limits you are asking about.

Thanks, didn't realise it wouldn't enlarge when clicked on.

I once started using PIWI because of the exchange (through AC88) and they had Ps3838 as well. I started off with bigger limits and (much) smaller drops than on my original PS3838 account (which I'm still using), but after some time they limited my max bet to EUR 1. A while after that they stopped offering PIWI alltogether.

There are two flavors of PS3838 accounts. Vanilla with regular limits, and pro with half whatever Pinnys' limits are.

This most likely means that the agent that is offering you the ps3838 is ripping you off by adding some extra vig which goes to him directly when you place whatever bet you planning to.
A legit agent would offer ps accounts with the exact same odds as pinnacle has but 9/10 of the cases half the limit is applied.

There are agents that offer the full Pinnacle maxbet but they tend to get quite rapped by good bettors so they quickly limit that to even 1euro (as Piwi has been doing in the recent years when they were originally offering pinnacle maxbets ps accounts with small drops upon betting).

This form of behaviour is absolutely normal for niche betting and will happen with every PS3838 account you create. Sometimes sooner, sometimes later. With a new account, the movements are small (and occasionally - at least at AC - the limits larger), but everything gets adapted quickly. Unless you keep on losing.

Only thing that helps a bit is waiting for the limits to increase. The AlUla Tour H2Hs you quoted in the 1st post went up to ~125 for example, which is a normal figure for cycling races like this. Bigger ones usually go up to around 250.

As far as I know, using multiple accounts is permitted, but you are of course not allowed to use them for market manipulation.

How do you get a PS3838 account in the US?
