    Most money in your account?

    I am curious as to how much money people keep in their accounts and with what book, and when they think is the right time to withdraw and how much.

    How comfortable are you with keeping large someones in online books?

    large sum = $10,000+

    I feel very comfortable with substantial balances in Pinnacle, Betfair and SBOBet.
    I would feel equally comfortable with the UK majors (Ladbrokes, Coral etc.) albeit, I would never have the need to.

    I wouldn´t lose any sleep over having USD 10-20k in The Greek or 5Dimes or Bookmaker but again would not often have the need to.

    When you start getting down to the likes of BetPhoenix, who I really like. I would tend to be more cautious.

    In a C rated or below book, I tend to deposit and withdraw much more frequently.

    I only keep large amounts in A books and Betfair. For all the rest - withdrawal if balance exceeds $1500. This lesson was learned after pointbet bankrupted.

    if it is more than 10 maximum bets there (for most of the people it is) then please, please do not risk your money!

    I have no problem keeping a few thousand at lower tier books. I try not to keep more than that after almost getting caught by Big Juicy Odds, where I withdrew 5K the day before they shut the doors. My cashiers cheque went through and all was good lost the minimum there but could have been far worse.

    In the "good ol' days" when I had a lot more available, I felt very comfortable keeping $40,000 in BetCris for an extended period. Personally, that's the largest amount I've had in one book. There have been times when I breached $20,000 at both Pinnacle and Greek, and the idea of worrying about the safety of my funds for even a nanosecond never crossed my mind. Had I the funds now, I wouldn't hesitate at all to keep very large sums in those 2 books.

    Apart from the above, I'd also feel quite secure keeping large balances in BetJam and BetFair. After that though, I'd start to become a bit more hesitant.

    I have no concern keeping $25k+ in Bookmaker. I have never seen or heard anything that made me nervous about my money.

    As for withdrawals, I just do 1-2 bank wires per month. Easy enough and never any questions asked.
