Bet sizes at the bookies

Postby shakeshuck » Tue Jan 12, 2016 12:22 pm

I think everyone knows that the bookies don't like losing money, and some of them have a habit of limiting or closing down accounts.

I was wondering if the folks here had guidelines they keep to to avoid these problems. I'm particularly interested in bet sizes, and if there's a specific limit any of us stick to in order to reduce the risk of being limited? I have been deBOGed by one recently which has cut my profits considerably.

I tend not to stick to flat stakes, but alter them depending on the odds. If the favourite is shorter than evens I usually restrict myself to about £50-60 as a max bet so as not to upset the bookie.
Am I being overcautious? If I can increase this amount, I can increase my profit; but there must be a figure that it is sensible to stay below?
