    Should I forfeit bailout for higher limits at Heritage
    Under the bailout promo, I have been limited to betting $1k/game (30% of deposit) after depositing $3k. I am at $12k now. I want to increase my limits to the normal $3k/game for the totals that I usually bet. The extra $2k/game would help me reach my total. However, I would have to forfeit the chance at a bailout, which would replenish my deposit if my balance drops to zero.

    Heritage sometimes has the best line for me at higher limit books. If the CRIS books had the same lines as Heritage, this would not be as much of an issue for me. I can't just go to Matchbook because their liquidity on most totals is not sufficient.

    Is the bailout more valuable than the extra $2k/game that I would be able to bet? If I shouldn't forfeit the bailout chance now, should I do it if I eventually have a much higher balance?

      @msdw. I think once you hit the roll over requirment you can ask them to raise your limit. I don't think this will affect your bailout plan.

        If you lose four units, you don't get a unit back. If, on the other hand, you win the next four bets, you'd be up 4K with the old limit and 12K with the new limit.

        So by not increasing your bet size you would be willing to pay as much as 8K (12K - 4K) over the next four bets, just to save yourself 3K in case you lose all four.

          The dilemma of this is that if you triple bet size, your chance of needing the bailout is much larger. I would stay with old limit.

            I tried that. I was told that a payout or limit raise would kill my bailout.

              I wasn't aware of that. I was on the same promo. They didn't say nothing about the bail out being voided after the took and withdrawl and had my limit raised after I met my roll over requirement.

                Making 3k bets with a 12k bankroll puts you in serious jeopardy of going bust. Personally, I'd stick with the 1k limit.

                  3k bets on a 12k bankroll is silly. Keep betting 1k until your bankroll is at least 30k.

                        That would make sense if this was my only book but I only have a small % of my total balance at Heritage. Betting 1k/game does not help me much in reaching the total amount that I want on a game. I have to bet the max at multiple books to fill up.
