    High Limit Betting Brokers for US Players??

    I was with Asian Connect for several years and really liked their service. I went away from them for no reason other than was just playing direct at the larger US books. I am getting ready for football and went back to Asian Connect only to find their limits with Pinnacle are like half what they should be. I am not sure what deal Asian Connect lost with Pinnacle or what missed since I left there. I find myself looking at other options.

    I had someone recommend INETGaming but I have no experience with them. I have seen the name here and there online in my gambling travels but nothing more. They have a high minimum deposit and are tailored to higher players according to their site. I am just trying to get some first hand experience on them before I make the deposit. Their minimum deposit is fine but I also don't want to make a deposit and find out they suck only to then withdraw.

    Anyone with experience with INET as their broker would be appreciated. Also if you don't have experience on Inetgaming can you let me know what brokers you do have experience with who will take large NFL and college wagers? I know Bookmaker as an individual book takes large wagers and I will be using them but I like to have some other options. Plus Bookmaker lines and especially juice is usually higher than many other books. Limits good but lines not so good. I would also like to deposit and payout with crypto or wire.

    I appreciate the help guys!

    Pinnacle limits should still be quite high for agent accounts on NFL and NCAA. Also you can combine the action with Matchbook: very liquid on NFL

    Thanks! Does matchbook cover most of the college football games?

    For some reason my agent connect limits seem half what normal clients would get. Otherwise I would love Pinnacle. I am worried that through Asian Connect even with the lower limits thy won’t let me bet over and over to get the wager size I would want.

    Pinnacle limits have been slashed 50% for all agent clients a little under 2 years ago. It's not you or Asianconnect, it's Pinnacle doing some risk management for their sharper (agent) clients.

    If you are a consistent winner I believe they won't let you rebet.

    Pinny insisted all agents take a share of all risk, that's why agent limits are lower now.

    I see. Appreciate the insight. Wish I could just get Pinnacle direct. Those were the days! Neteller and Pinnacle both in the US! Great limits, oh man. Just thinking about it I might have an accident in my drawers. LOL!

    I have been going back and forth but I think I am going to make a deposit of the minimum 2500 at INETGaming. I'll take the chance and see how it goes. I will then see how it goes with limits and service.

    It's been good thus far. I am far from a veteran with them though. The limits have been quite high although I have not pushed the limits. I like the simplicity of the platform. Makes it easy to pop in and out for a bet. They do offer live betting similar to Bookmaker's offerings. I haven't used them for anything obscure like darts are something. LOL I also have not used nor would use the casino and horse book. Don't really bet high limit horses and I don't trust any online casino. Can't give an opinion on that stuff.

    I just had a long chat with one of their guys. Mnimum 10k deposit. Sports wager is min 2.5k. For a broker so unheard of, i'm not willing to give them my business just yet. I hope things work well for you there.

    I got vouched for by a book in their system. I rather not discuss my average bet or deposit other than I am a larger player with a great history so assume they wanted the action and therefore gave me a "special" deal.

    Maybe it's me and I am overly sensitive but usually people don't share that sort of stuff on an open forum. I am trying my best to answer the questions without putting anything personal about myself out there in terms of how much I bet, how much I deposited, and what book vouched for me. I wouldn't tell my wife that stuff so I surely wouldn't post it to SBR. LOL!

    Guys can take them or leave them. The jury is out for me as I am a newbie there but I haven't had any issue yet. Keyword "yet". Sometimes those are famous last words.

    It is you!

    You pushed and pushed this name.

    Now as soon as someone tries it and says its a 5k minimum deposit, you say no it isn't, but somehow think it is top secret info what you claim the minimum actually is.

    You now wont even share which book vouched for you and this scammy looking unknown agent you seem to be here to push as your main reason to post. So we can gauge if there is any chance at all it is reputable.

    You are looking more and more obviously like a paid shill with every post you make. That is not allowed here at all. I suggest you find something else to post about if you wish to stay.

    Optional, is INETgaming the one you are referring to? I looked into them myself but see nothing out there supporting them. Seems you are dead on here.

    Yes I am talking about them.

    I find this entire thread suspicious from post #1.

    There is also another thread where the OP is given several legit alternatives and comes back posting that "he decided" to go with this unknown hot mess instead.


    And then them coming up with a 10K commitment for the first person here that approached them, screams of scam too to me. Get as much as possible as fast as possible if they know it's a fly by night scheme.

    I am sorry that I got you all twisted Optional. Maybe it is a scam. I am actually trying to play a little and pull a withdrawal to see how it goes. If I lose my money it won't be the first time unfortunately. It is a gamble in and of itself. I have actively posted here hoping someone would give information. I must add however that I have 1689 posts on SBR and have been on these boards since 2010. I think I have posted about a lot of stuff that isn't in this thread. I am sorry to you and anyone who got bent out of shape on my posts. I will gladly stop posting about them to avoid either being considered a shill or whatever.

    Oh and IMHO if anyone reads this thread and based on what I said in my posts here decides to deposit $10k or more with this or any book then they are a moron. Everyone should do their own research which is what I was trying to do with this thread.

    I even just reread the thread and anyone who reads this as me being a shill, sorry that because that's the way you want to read it! Just because I brought up an unknown book I stumbled upon through a referral. Except maybe post #10 I don't see where I am touting or saying anything positive about them other than discussing them. Maybe just posting their name is touting. I started asking about INET but simply asking to get a Pinnacle direct agent with Pinnacle limits.

    Oh and Optional, what legit alternatives were I given?

    People said find a Pinnacle agent..............yeah I can't! That's what I am trying to do. Find a Pinnacle agent with Pinnacle limits. You yourself said they lowered agent limits.

    Someone brought up Matchbook and then another post says Asian Connect took down Matchbook.

    So where are the legit alternatives? What post am I missing reading?

    I respect you a ton Optional because I read your posts all the time about books and bitcoin with the books etc. so I apologize if this comes off as disrespectful. You can delete it or whatever but at least know I am not intentionally disrespecting you or the board. I am just beyond frustrated. People can do with what they want when it comes to INET but attacking me as a shill or saying my posts are suspicious is a joke. I would get it if I had 10 posts and just opened an account on SBR like all the shills out there but I have been here for too long. Please reread the thread and aside from just bringing up and unknown book I far from push INET.

    Ok. Apologies if I am wrong but whole conversation about them has seemed unusual since the first mention so have been on alert. Not wanting to tell other people which book vouched for them was the last nail for me.

    If there is an agent that claims to offers vastly higher pinny limits than Pinny's terms allow other known legit agents to offer, it would be good to know why that is. Or at least that it's real. What domain do they use for their pinny accounts?

    Optional, I get it. This place is loaded with shills. I even said in one of my responses directly to you that I try not to discuss a book or service too glowing to avoid being considered a shill.

    I did not want to say what book vouched for me because maybe they don't want me saying. I don't know. I appreciate my relationship with that book and have had it for years. It's more important I play it safe with then than divulge something they don't want me saying but it is a large and known book. It's not like you and I are sitting in a bar chatting. Everyone can read what I post.

    INET doesn't have a Pinny account. I use a set platform with pinnacle lines. I don't know how they do it but again, I far from took the plunge in how much I deposited. If I lose my deposit it sucks but so be it. I will say again that for me a lot of what they do is fishy and not a normal agent setup. Am I concerned yes. Would I rather someone say visit 123Sports and they will give you full Pinny limits and a Matchbook account. Guess what F-INET and I would be over there in a minute. I am just trying to test what is out there and find some options.

    I thought sharing what I found would be of help and posting would perhaps bring some other users out of the woodwork since INET is unknown and I couldn't find anything. Maybe making a deposit to an unknown agent is dumb to people. Maybe but the money is not a lot in the whole scheme of things and if I found a gem that gives pinny lines and high limits, good. If not, it's another lost gamble in a long line of lost gambles through the years.

    I am not INET's lawyer and I do not want to take the position of promoting or defending them. I am just here to chat about them and with others about options for someone like myself looking for a high limit Pinnacle agent, that is ok working with US players through a VPN and has easy access. We can gladly change the conversation from INET but I need some other options that fit that profile if any exist to change the conversation to them.

    Most agents use a separate website for their Pinny accounts. They are not secret. You can tell us the site. I want to see who owns it.

    I suppose an agent could fire their action through "normal" non-agent pinny accounts, but that's just asking for trouble - pinny will be on the lookout for it, and it's likely to lead to confiscations.


    Some books offer higher than pinny limits, but always with lower juice. You have to ask for it on Skype, and they take a manual look at the market. That's not pinnacle taking the action though, it's the agent themselves.

    No they do not offer Pinnacle. I would LOVE a Pinnacle agent with Pinnacle limits. INET just offers high limits on their platform using Pinnacle odds. To be honest I don't think they are a Pinnacle agent. They just have an API for their lines and high limits. May not have any connection to Pinnacle.

    I would lean to something along this line. When I was with Asian Connect I think the Pinnacle site was PinBet88 or some such domain. The way I bet through INET is through INET site. That's why I don't think they are direct with Pinnacle but perhaps some hybird of what HeeHaw is saying.

    I have to say that the business they run does feel like it is unlicensed. I had many probing questions posed and it seems that they could do anything for you. The guy i emailed to did spend lengths at typing out his replies. Very upfront yet the whole thing seems off. 10k deposit for an unknown is way too risky for my taste. If anyone else who has loads of spare cash apart from Cyber tries it out do share. I dont have balls of steel to try it . lol

    I asked someone who has been in the industry for a long time if he had ever dealt with them. Apparently, he has never heard of these guys and a well known Asian broker also seems very suspicious of them and claims this site is new. Be very, very careful as it screams "scam". There is no way a broker can offer higher limits than Pinnacle at the same odds as they simply would not have a balanced market like Pinnacle has to remain profitable. Considering no well known sites have high limits for the markets, they'd have to take the action themselves. This is not possible.

    Their horse racing response to me also did not make sense as they claim to "spread the deposit around a bunch of exchanges, to allow for high limits all the time, even the day before a race". The problem with that is, the exchanges have no volume at all early in the morning or the day before the race...yet they still allow high limit bets at that time. This is simply not possible.

    I urge everyone to be very cautious.

There is no way a broker can offer higher limits than Pinnacle at the same odds as they simply would not have a balanced market like Pinnacle has to remain profitable. Considering no well known sites have high limits for the markets, they'd have to take the action themselves. This is not possible.

    Their horse racing response to me also did not make sense as they claim to "spread the deposit around a bunch of exchanges, to allow for high limits all the time, even the day before a race". The problem with that is, the exchanges have no volume at all early in the morning or the day before the race...yet they still allow high limit bets at that time. This is simply not possible.

    I urge everyone to be very cautious.

    I appreciate all the insight guys. This is really what I was going for before I deposited but it was pretty quiet so I took a chance. I deposited the minimum they would allow. I sent my "host" a message this morning to request a withdrawal. I will see how it goes. I will admit I am posting this message here so they hopefully see it and thereby won't want the bad publicity and I get my withdrawal. I picked up about 20% on my deposit since making it so I will be getting some of their money if they do. Regardless of how this goes and assuming I get my withdrawal that still leaves me in the pickle of looking for a good out. I will go back with Bookmaker if left with no options. Great book but the lines and juice not as competitive as Pinnacle or MB.

    Anyone know a broker that takes Pinnacle and Matchbook? That combo should allow me to achieve the limits I want for NFL even if the Pinnacle limits are halved. Also need this broker to look the other way on VPN and US Players. I appreciate the help.
