    Are there people with 7 digits in an online sportsbook account?

    I see lot of people asking things like would it be safe for having a big balance at their sportsbooks and many reply back what book they use. And usually the people reply back with thegreek, BetJamaica, bookmaker or 5dimes. Someone mentioned they had 5 figures in their account at the greek and people here say that is nothing to the greek. I'm wondering, are there people who have 7 digits in their sportsbook account or that is not possible? Reason i ask this is because many of you say books like thegreek and bookmaker takes wagers of $20,000 in an NFL game or something to that affect. Well i'm pretty sure if people were betting these high amounts, they definitely have a ton of money in their account otherwise they wouldn't be risking most of their bankroll on one game.

    But do you guys say there are a good amount of people who leave that much money in one book? And if people did have this big of an amount, i would assume the only books they are would be thegreek, bookmaker and pinnacle right?? I could not imagine anyone having that much money in a recreational book such as 5dimes and bodog because if one was to win a lot, they would probably get limited by the time they hit even 5 digits or am i wrong here?

    I'm assuming that guy Billy Walters and his friends have these amounts in their online books?

    Thought some books took higher bets over the phone, or more bets before your next wager to allow them to adjust the line (if they feel it's applicable).

    Who are you Jack Handey or something?

    What is the deal with all of your retarted questions and deep thoughts?

    Trust me you are far off course from ever being a professional bettor or having a 7 figure bankroll so stop putting so much thought into it.

    Hmm i dont think anyone would tell you if they had 7figs in the sb account. Well sharpcat no need to knock him for his wishful thinking, just cause you dont have it sharpie doesnt mean no one else has it or can't achieve that so pfff with your sh-it talk.

    Oh, I can think of several reasons. And none of them are legal.

    only a nutcase would have huge amounts in there books, these books could go bust in no time and you would lose all your money, the only one that can really be trusted is betfair as its an exchange

    in the u.k you probably wouldn't need to keep it with the book since transferring funds is very smooth and safe

    i think mine max i would like to have in a sportsbook is no more than 100 000........
    over that i will feel insecure...
    infact 80 000 seems like a good figure already

    but if u are a high roller...or a betting syndicate..then having 7 digits in ur sportbooks a/c would not really be tat surprising....

    Maybe someone from bodog has a huge amount not sure of 7 figures maybe 6 figures. Probably Jamie Gold would have it. I do know in poker sites some player might have 7 figures like Phil Ivey or that Dwan kid.

    With the amount of people laundering money, high rollers and pros I would have to say there are more then a couple.
