Sportsbooks are in the business of making money. Having all these linesmakers, livechats, workers picking up cash, customer service reps. This all costs money.
With the wealth of information found on the internet, people are much more informed bettors. I remember when I first started here the concept of "fading the public" was laughable. Now that there are so many people doing it, it's tougher for the books to operate.
Most books can't afford to have an abundance of sharp players that bet hard on games. So when you get to a certain point, they make it harder for you by doing things such as limiting your bets.
Winners are not their target market, so they really don't have many reasons to keep you happy. You are costing them money by winning, and I bet they can't wait to get rid of you.
Bookmaker is smart by only allowing MG and WU cash deposits. That way they can't get charged back by credit cards or have other transactions reversed. Once they have collected the cash, there's no way you can take it back. That's probably why they're more willing to let you bet whatever you want. Probably why they'll be the one of the ones to survive if a lot of these smaller books start to go down.
