    A bookie who will never limit?
    Other than Pinny and the Exchanges are there any books who will never limit you?

    Haven't heard of anyone being limited at Bookmaker or The Greek, not saying it hasn't happened but these books do accept sharp action.

                  is limiting different from totally kicking you out

                    tab sportsbet

                    I would say the safest book in the world BUT no U.S AND their lines are crap. But they take all comers.

                    Was Aust government owned before privatised and there is at least one in every shopping centre.

                    If I was after a book to launder money then this would be it!!

                        Depends on how much they limit.

                        When they start putting you down to $50 bets max, I would say it is effectively the same as totally kicking you out. Many books prefer to do it this way, give you a "soft boot" as it were, rather than a hard one. That way they can claim they never ban anyone lol.

                                All books have limits. Even if you don't have a personal limit, they do have max on different sports

                                      truth is most people who are asking about the limits at the bigger books will likely never have to worry about being limited, most likely they stumbled onto some type of system and thinks it's good enough to take the books for millions, which is not very likely.

                                      even if they do limit, between bookmaker, greek, and pinny someone can easily win 1 mil+ before being fully limited. and if you have 1 mil+ net in winnings, there are two possibilities

                                      1.) you play on a team, in which case you can easily use your teammates' resources to open up some new accounts

                                      or 2.) you are playing by yourself, in which case w/ 7 digit bankroll, you should be looking to the financial markets to yield a better return on your investments than sportsbetting anyways.

                                        agree trix, most of us just want to know for the fun of it, but it still fun to dream a little, like playing the lotto, you want to know if it happens atleast you will get paid

                                          Not talking really abt limiting after big scores--they just don't want to be lopsided on certain bets. Cris will quote 1k limits for alternate lines after you hurt them for a bit with higher wagers. No biggie, just bet the limit and move on. Greek will give you "please phone in your wager" if you beat them good on the internet. This is the same as saying you are limited and/or leave in a nice way.

                                              Wrong! The just limit you by adding the Premium Charge!

                                              See their rules when you win and you pay less than 20% in commission.

                                              All their users MUST pay at least 20% in commission of their winnings (excluding commission)

                                                    An outright ban for winning, no. Counter-measures, yes.

                                                          for sure you're a loser so that's why they didn't limit you?
                                                          Normally bookies will limit you, if you win a lot?
