Do bookmakers limit winning accounts, unlike exchanges?
« on: August 09, 2025, 07:34:44 am »
This just happened to me last month. I had a decent streak of wins on a regular betting site and out of nowhere, my account got limited. They slashed my max bets to like 5 bucks, which felt super unfair. I wasn’t even doing anything shady! A buddy of mine said that wouldn’t happen on a betting exchange because they don’t care if you win. Is that actually true? Do betting exchanges just let you keep going as long as there’s someone to match your bet?

Golf Hit makes every swing an adventure! Whack the ball across the field, pick up coins, and try to reach the green for a chance at bonus points.

Yeah man, I’ve been through that nonsense too. Bookies don’t like consistent winners, especially if you're sharp. Exchanges are a whole different vibe — since you’re betting against other people, not the house, they don't care how much you win. You still pay a small commission on your profits, but your account won’t get slapped with limits. Here’s a breakdown that helped me figure all this out: https://sportsdigest.in/betting-exchange-vs-traditional-bookmaker/146750/ — it explains the main reasons why exchanges are more forgiving for regular or smart bettors. I switched over and haven’t looked back.

Man, that’s wild. I never win enough for them to even notice me 😂 Still, good to know they can pull moves like that. Makes me think twice now.

True, exchanges will not limit you for winning, they just take a commission. The only thing to watch out for is if there is enough liquidity for your bets to be matched.
