Do the books close winning bettors accounts? Is there any truth in that?

I'm interested  to know if any books have ever closed or limited the players who were winning? I want to know what books are those and what was the reason they claimed or used as an excuse. I also want to know if by closing the accounts they also seized the funds? I am mostly interested to know the numbers - like what were the winnings causing the action, and by what was the proportion between the initial deposit and the bankroll at the closing or limiting point? Bet365, Stake, Pinnacle, VC, Draftkings etc. Please tell

Yes to bet365 and stake personally.

just from winning/betting on sharper sides

not banned but limits on bets, but that means it’s pretty much unusable. 

went from betting a few k a game to being limited to a couple of hundred p game if anything

Pinnacle probably not. Any books used legally in the U.S., absolutely. Bookmaker probably not. BetUS, possibly. Cannot speak to any other books factually
