Good books for big bettors....

There are no limits at Matchbook.

**apk2k6** · 08-19-08, 02:41 PM

What are the chances of a $10,000 play on my part gets matched 100%? Pretty likely?

Edit: I'd also like to buy points during the NBA season.

**LT Profits** · 08-19-08, 02:49 PM

Matching bets on major sports should be no problem as long as offer is reasonable and not placed like two minutes before game time.

Buying points would be an issue though, so if that bothers you, Bookmaker probbaly has the highest limits. Unfortunately, they are also full juice on everything.

**fiveteamer** · 08-19-08, 02:53 PM

quit gambling now. you are too young.

**LT Profits** · 08-19-08, 02:55 PM

Yeah, I've been gambling for longer than this guy has been on earth.

**apk2k6** · 08-19-08, 03:05 PM

Haha. It makes college even more fun

What gets me is that certain places will let you bet so high, but they have terrible withdrawal limits. Yeah, you can place $100k in wagers in one day on Matchbook, but you can't withdraw more than $3k per day.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm a winning player. Wager limits become a bit irrelevant when withdrawal limits are so low.

If you have enough cash to go to college and bet 5-10K per game, you should be concentrating on getting laid 5-10 times per night on campus instead of scouting games. You are young - you can bet games when you are 40 and piss away your money. Banging college chicks should be your focus.

I have a girlfriend, she got me fast haha. Sorority girl, older than me, just graduated college.

**durito** · 08-19-08, 06:18 PM

I'll take the bets to whatever chase system you have.

Thats the book or should I say Echange I would have recommended to this gentlemen as well. The reason being is the limits issue.

**sofun** · 08-20-08, 12:14 AM

wowowo 10K per bet,

**BuddyBear** · 08-20-08, 12:37 AM

You sound like the ultimate square. A 21 year old who has a chase system up to $10,000 and buys points in an NBA game. Have fun going broke....

**onthewhat** · 08-20-08, 02:27 AM

I want to hear details of this "system"

No you don't.

**jjgold** · 08-20-08, 08:04 AM

first off the guy is not betting 10k per game

Secondly if a guy was betting big money it would be at Greek, Bookmaker or Matchbook

I'm in a tough situation here. I'm looking for wager limits in MLB moneylines and NBA point spreads around $10,000+. I say this because I use a chase system and on the last bet, it can be pretty high.

You do realise chase systems have been around forever, and pretty clearly don't work?

**Tosser** · 08-20-08, 08:18 AM

Wsex has 5k limits on NBA spreads, you can bet several times thou after the line either changed or 5mins passed..i´d pick them and Matchbook with the easy transfers between the two.

Than, everything has alrdy been said about chasing systems here (i guess martingale as your stack increases if you lose?).
Personally i cannot take your post serious, a guy who has that much money when being young has to be smarter than that..

**dwaechte** · 08-20-08, 08:56 AM

Ugh. This is going to end badly.

**apk2k6** · 08-20-08, 10:15 AM

Well thanks for the help I guess. And yes chase systems can work if the right filters are applied. That's exactly why I don't come on this board anymore though, it's too much casual "who I think will when" type betting.

I didn't mean I have 10k to drop on every bet at all, I meant that in the near future if I wanted to up my winnings to 1k per event, on the last bet it could be very high. I'm starting out at a smaller point.

**max_asdf** · 08-20-08, 10:25 AM

what board do you go on then? eog?

First off, if you stay in the Think Tank there is the occasional useful post here and there. Personally I've learnt a lot from the board, you just have to be patient and read the right stuff.

Secondly, I still think this is going to end badly. I do believe in chase systems if you find a game that is correlated to the previous one/ones. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anything in sports that fits that description overly well.

The point is, when it's time to place that 10k bet, do you really want all that riding on one game? Chase systems fly in the face of every logical money management tip you can get. Don't blow your education money chasing down a dream if you're not sure of what you're doing.

**apk2k6** · 08-20-08, 10:47 AM

I've actually thought about it and given up the big-loss chase system. I've moved more towards the straight wagers since writing this. I'm trying out different systems and this one seems to be working.

Thanks for the words of wisdom from the older folks. It only costs me $300 per semester here at the University I'm at due to being in-state and with a scholarship, but I understand the point you're making. I still go out to bars and hang out with my friends and etc....

**Peep** · 08-20-08, 10:52 AM

Yep, I always said Martingale would have ended up a rich man if only he had applied the right filters.....

**SlappyWhite** · 08-20-08, 11:07 AM

chase system is another way to say losing system.

**ico2525** · 08-20-08, 12:03 PM

I think we should delete this thread because it's embarrassing, but I don't really understand why you guys care about how Matchbook has no limits. Sure you can place a $10k bet if you want to, but you can only withdraw $3k per day. So if you place 6 big bets a week, go 4-2, and end up with let's say an extra $18k in your account, you're going to keep making withdrawals every day?

That's what bothers me about people who say they have $50k in certain books that have caps on withdrawals. Do they plan on getting all of their money at some point?

**Peep** · 08-20-08, 12:11 PM

Well, that is still 21K a week. So it takes you a year to get your million profit out, what the heck, probably worth the wait!

You can take $10,000 a day out of matchbook via neteller. Pinnacle will let you do $50,000 per transaction, with no limits on bank wires.

I'd be surprised if matchbook didn't offer bankwires for some of their bigger customers though I've never asked.

**bmw530i** · 08-20-08, 12:59 PM

wow pinnacle is so sick, ...I was told by BetJam, if I get to a certain figure they would allow 5 figure plays.

**ico2525** · 08-20-08, 01:11 PM

For us Americans, Canadians, Turks, and others Neteller is not an option.

God I loved Neteller back in the day. **** you George Bush.

He's talking about people who live in the USA.

Actually I don't think Bush really had anything to do with it. He signed the Port Security Bill to protect the ports from terrorists. The fact that Bill Frist and John Kyle had attached the UIGEA to it in the middle of the night meant nothing to Bush. It was all about signing to protect the ports.

Not to say that Bush is for gambling but I don't think he really had much to do with UIGEA.
