Has Bookmaker ever limited someone's bets or banned anyone for winning too much?

      Seriously, all bookmakers do this. They always loved losers and hated the 2-5% of winners.

        any book should love this and limits the players wins

            How does the betanysports live interface compare with Bovada's? Love the interface on Bovada, but the margins are horrible.

                Live Baccarat at BM and Bovada is exactly the same. However, I would not recommend playing at BM because they don't keep a detail record of your hands. Just the win/loss total. BM has limit my live bets to only 300 per bet but during timeouts, I can bet at much as I want.

                  Yes, they will limit your pre-game NBA bets or any sport if you're a winning player.

                  If you're a sharp, every time you place a wager, the odds will get worse each time you hit the limit. I have footage but what are you going to do, it's their shop.

                  They payout fast though which is nice.

                    I have no problem with this. It's what a good sportsbook should be doing. Manage a sharp book, take in action, and pay everyone. The fact that many books can't manage their lines effectively is why we have them pulling so many shenanigans.

                          "Banned" or limited in some way. Unless things have seriously changed in the last decade, you're not literally getting banned by 500 books just for winning.

                            Only if you're SUPER sharp, or chasing steam is really the biggest one. With today's tech IDK how you'd even do that, but it's their damn fault for being slow.

                            As long as they pay you out there is a million options to bet safely.
