SI has always been a joke. I used them once a few years back to do an outright on the canadian junior team and I used their max amount. It won, the next time I went to bet I had been limited. 1 freakin bet and I had the limits put on lol. Pinny is the way to go like jml said.

Lets put it this way...I deposited 1000 on christmas. I generated 13,000 profit since then. My limits increased from 500 sides 250 totals to 1200 sides and 500 totals around march madness time and they probably hoped I would take advantage and max out and lose alot of it. Now they see that I cant lose, even though I lose a dime here and there in NBA I can get it back with baseball. So they are probably hoping I leave them!

Lotsa books do that unfortunately. The sad truth is that 90% of these books available to us on the net don't have an inkling of how to balance their action, so the only way they can survive is to either limit, or kick out those who win. I swear, they should have disclaimers that say "if you don't plan on losing, don't sign up". It's sickening.
Pinnacle won't limit you however. Unfortunately I can't use Pinnacle anymore. You Canadian guys are lucky. Olympic won't limit ya either, or BetCris.....but Pinnacle's lines crush those guys IMO. Dime bets are penny candy to those books with the volume of action they take....Pinny's max bet on some games is 100K....and I believe at least 25K on anything else, so you'll be safe there no matter how much you wanna bet. One problem though, you won't beat the line move at Pinny, or get shitty off market lines like you can at SIA....which is the only reason I even use SIA. Can't tell ya how many times I've won by a half point, when others who had the same play as me either pushed or lost....especially in hoops, by taking advantage of a goofy line at SIA that was a full point or more off market. I don't bet big enough for them to care though apparently, and even if they did limit me to $300 for sides, I wouldn't care anyway. It's so rare that I would make a bet of over $300 that it wouldn't effect me. My advice would DEFINITELY be to switch to Pinnacle though. Best book ever, and G.W. and his boys in congress can lick my balls for screwing up my ability to use them.... |

Thanks for the reply Stiflersmom, I always enjoy reading your imput on such topics.
I only found out about this because I wanted to be like Kevin and put a 1000 (10 units) on Tampa, I nearly fell off my chair when it said limit is 300 ...oh well I got $300. Crazy game, thought the 10 - 4 lead was safe. |

PINNY... I'll always remember my first love. Eventhough she was taken away from me, along with Neteller.
This is off-topic, but is VIP okay? Iv'e heard they were having some troubles... I've been using them for a couple years, and they offer some solid doggie lines, better than 5DIMES at least. Anyone know what is up with their status? I just got asked to re-do all my account information.... leaving me worried that they are getting bought out. |
