Why the book's wont allow me to bet $30k on a game

thegreen · 01-06-11, 02:50 PM

they might do it on Playoff game. They probably had to much action on side you wanted to bet but that is an awfull lot to bet on one game in the cyber world. You best also be aware of max net win you esp if u do parlays. Fly buddy out to Vegas for day w/ no hotel cost you less the $600 and no worry about getting paid...

you seem to be not from the US so why not just play at pinnacle or betfair.

sharpcat · 01-06-11, 03:03 PM

It depends what sport you are betting on limits are much higher in the NFL than the NBA.

Manager was likely implying that you can bet more on a different sport.

KGambler · 01-06-11, 03:07 PM

Allowing you to deposit $30K with them and then immediately bet the full balance does not seem like such a great business model for them. Then what, you request a $60K withdrawal if you win? I don't get it.

What was the sport? Was it a dime line?

If I ran a book and had a new customer fund 30k to his account and then want to lay the entire 30k on one game, I would also decline the bet.

Now if you deposit 200k and you want to wager 30k your 1st time out, I might consider accepting that one.

Sure I can go to Vegas and put it on a team but I am busy. Would any book accept $30k and over if I do win willing to pay up. I also don't want a book that pays back monthly around $5k.

Also I don't want their casino limit me for the day or two. I was up $9600 within 7 minutes and they close me out of the casino and told me to come back tomorrow since I was over my limits of win.

Is it obviously because of your screenname

What game were you trying to bet. And how do you get up that much in the casino in 7 minutes with 100 limits on the table games?

BigDick · 01-06-11, 07:09 PM

I was trying to bet ncaa basketball today. As for casino the limits on the table is $3000 for live.

Trucker George · 01-06-11, 07:15 PM

BigDick, I'm interested to know if you are a long term player at this book, or have you just recently made an account and this is your first deposit.

BigDick · 01-06-11, 07:17 PM

I opened I think 2-3 months ago. Started with small bets to test them out happy with the results then deposit big. Same thing with many other books.

trixtrix · 01-06-11, 07:22 PM

no book, not even pinny will take 30k on an ncaabb game, you can bribe all the players for less than that, ask to bet 30k on an nfl playoff game and greek will likely oblige you

Not on a single wager, but over a period of like 5 minutes you should be able to get that 30k down on the game you want. You can place successive bets for the max amount. When the line changes, you can bet the max again. If the line does not change, you have to wait maybe a minute or so and then you can place the max again. Rinse and repeat! Even if the line moves a bit you should still get fairly good odds overall. You probably know this but it may not be obvious to people not too familiar with sportsbooks.

Bookmaker has 50k limits on pro football(after Thursday) and has told me I could get up to 60k before.

Perhaps Bestake with that bunch too then?

chachi · 01-07-11, 11:48 AM

well yes, but bestake would make you split it across a six selection combo at 225k per though ...

testudo · 01-07-11, 12:20 PM

Its all about how much the book wants to be exposed on a certain line. They may need the wager as well to even the money out.

bubba · 01-07-11, 12:26 PM

i dont think u want $ in a book taking 30k on a line they are not comfortable with.

secretstash · 01-07-11, 12:46 PM

i have a friend who bet 40k on 2 bets at the greek before. 1 i believe was not football either so they do accept them that high on nba or cbb but not sure why they declined ur bet this time.. in any case how much DID they let u get down? and what is the play, more importantly LOL

RonPaul2008 · 01-07-11, 12:48 PM

I'm pretty sure Greek would be willing to take at least 5k at a time if the game is not an "extra game".

sportyla · 01-07-11, 01:09 PM

$30k in just one game ? bookmakers never bet with you, actually you betting with other wagers, and unfortunately no one crazy like you in that game. You're really BigDick

30K is a big sum.
If you want bet so many dollars in a single bet, probably you must use a betting exchange book.

hanziman · 01-08-11, 07:21 AM

Hey, so that NCAAB game u wanted to put 30k on... did it win or lose?

Tomahawk · 01-08-11, 07:38 AM

If they don't let you to bet, you can always spread 30k around 4-5 bookies.

It's easier then to travel a few hundred miles to Vegas to place a bet.

michael_li · 01-08-11, 05:07 PM

If you deposit 30k with me i will take the bet

wow seriously 30k one single bet, thats major -_-'
