    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

    I can pretty much guarantee Bookmaker will never limit or restrict you.  Unless you're angle-shooting or multi-accounting.  DraftKings will limit you for simply having the temerity to win more than you lose.  Seen guys get bounced from Bovada just for steamchasing

    As long as they pretend to pay me I will pretend to work

    I'm sorry I can't be more help as far as deposits/withdrawals.  I'm still using a credit card to deposit and M o n y g r a to withdraw.  Point being they pay fast and no hassle or bullchit.  Obviously the way to go now is bitcoin and I'm sure other guys on here can better educate you on that.peace_5

Bet365, Stake, Pinnacle, VC, Draftkings etc. Please tell

    Yes, many books limit or close consistently winning players, especially sharp bettors. I was recently told about https://agentifyai.org/deposit-1-get-20-nz/ and now everything is in place. I'm just looking for a game with a high rating here and I've never had any problems. You can try it if you're interested.
