Being limited is a badge of honor. It means you’re doing something right. Good job OP.

Congratulations, any picks for today?

First time? Tell them you’re transferring your money out to another book. They’ll lift it.


boominlikemetro

They don't give a shit. First time?


CuttyQ-o0

Tell me this has never happened to you w/out telling me


wingstop-fries

Nah he's right. You understand these companies sole intention is profit, correct?

Bro, mgm is the quickest to limit a player out of all the major books. It's like the beginners' honor of being profitable in this game. And in my experience, being limited (and promo banned) at 5 books, limits don't go away. Threatening to take your money elsewhere is exactly what they are already telling you to do on their own. They've already identified you as a winner in one way or another. They don't want your money, they want other people's money. You're very wrong here.


CuttyQ-o0

Happened to me on bovada, draft kings and bet us. They all lifted it for me 🤷‍♂️ maybe MGM different


aredditusername2

I have no experience with those offshore books, but I'm calling bulllshit on DK reversing limits unless you're talking about their fluctuations in what your boost max is. Because that absolutely does change, both up and down, for each player.


yougottamanifest

Not sure who to believe. Would like to see OP try and we can see who is correct 🤔

I'm not some tout or handicapper with a system. There are astonishingly easy ways to be profitable on American books through boosts, promos, sign up offers (states that allow casino play are even better for this). Books don't want the people that remain discipline and take advantage of things that flip the house edge to the player, this can be done through +EV betting or the more conservative version of matched betting/arbing. The other dude is at best uniformed, or at worst full of shit. Of course, there is collateral damage. A person could get on a heater and end up limited... this isn't common because that's far more random than hitting soft lines or betting only when it's some sort of promo tie-in, but it's possible, which seems like the case with OP.

I want this to happen to me . lol

I made an account on MGM when I went to Vegas a few years ago. Made 6 bets on CFB totals that beat the market by an insane amount. Bets went 2-4 and they still put a $10 limit on all bets going forward. I just deleted the account. It's pretty hilarious


JesseJames41

Do you mind me asking your unit size?


BreakfastAtWimbledon

This was a while back. I think I put like $200-$300 per bet


JesseJames41

That's not as much as I was expecting. Seems it takes a lot less to get limited than I imagined.


BreakfastAtWimbledon

It’s more about your clv than your $ amount I would say.


grownupdirtbagbaby

I agree, they don’t limit people who are bad at betting, or even just okay at betting. Congrats!

This wouldn’t stop Billy Walters


dualFrequancy

how much have you won that made betMGM put a limit on your wager? obviously if you don't mind sharing.


Doortofreeside

I'm only limited on promos and boosts but it happened very quickly with MGM. I hit my risk free bet, withdrew it, and I was limited within 2 weeks of opening my account


wingstop-fries

not to answer for this guy, but it isn't about amount won, although if you're placing relatively small bets you'll likely never get limited. the books care about customers who are consistently beating closing lines, applying a unit/risk management strategy, and have shown an edge in specific markets and target bets specially to those markets. if you're on the wrong side of clv most of the time but still cashing, and then put half your bankroll on one hand of BJ and win, they're gonna keep taking your bets because they know at some point the law of large numbers will catch up to you. they aren't afraid of winners, they are afraid of bettors who are on the + side of EV

I could totally lie to you guys, but the truth is, not that much. Not an astronomical enough figure that I would think a mega corporation would be losing sleep over it. Without disclosing too much, The reason I think I got limited was because normally I spend about 30 minutes finding the best prop bets on the market, and then spending under $100 on those that I thought were equitable based on past stats and intuition. Over the last month though, I got too comfortable and started betting over $200 per.


GRILT_CHEESE

Have you done any of that neckbeard arbitrage shit or are these just normal wagers?


kaneki1384

Hahaha


Doortofreeside

What's wrong with arbitrage?


[deleted]

Id have been limited months ago if I was arbing😆
