Message: [QUOTE="Bull Shark, post: 2549009, member: 7690"] [b]Re: BHQ Gambling Association - DO NOT LINK TO BETTING WEBSITES[/b] It all seemed to begin around 2009 / 2010 .. or at least that's when I personally first noticed it .. I'd had an account with a very popular sports book (hint - naming right sponsor for a western sydney NRL stadium) since 2006 .. Over that time I'd grown that account from $250 to over 40k and had been allowed to get on any sport at any time for any amount I wanted ... Then suddenly when I went to place a bet (usually between $500-$1000) it would take several minutes to process and then I'd get a message that they'd only accept a max of $200 on it .. Or they'd just flat out reject the bet .. Then within seconds they'd move the line I'd tried to bet on a couple of points, even though they hadn't accepted my money on it. It was just ridiculous. Same thing happened pretty quickly at two other popular commercial books I moved to after that ... basically it was their way of saying '**** off, we don't want you' Anyway, the two books I'm with now are completely different .. Seems there's been a few stories in the media about this stuff lately, here's a link to one below ..
