AFAIK the sportsbooks with the highest RTP, Pinnacle for example, don't treat their customers like that, by selectively discriminating/trapping them, and always stay professional.
It's not shady to limit players, and even though Pinnacle has a "winners welcome policy", they do, in fact, change limits on a player to player basis - especially for minor events. As far as lines and limits though, Pinnacle is definitely the best.
I don't think australian authorities will appreciate that, neither american, canadian and english ones since it is doing business with sport organizations and personalities from those countries for advertising.
The authorities of those countries don't run any sports leagues so I don't really get where you're going with that.
Stake takes advantage from being a crypto offshore casino, and not being as famous as largest sportsbooks but if it makes bad things with their customers I don't think australian authorities will appreciate that, neither american, canadian and english ones since it is doing business with sport organizations and personalities from those countries for advertising.
Yup, they are accountable to no one.
This is why people prefer Vegas and regulated books. But not all countries got a Vegas or a legal book, so they are forced to bet on offshore books. Then this happens and you can do NOTHING (even if your account was verified by the book itself before you started betting lol, funny and scary at the same time)
They do have a UK license, which is one of the the more reputable in the world. It's only for stake.co.uk , but if they were to start blatantly scamming players they would no doubt lose that license.
Ok I'm going to quit contributing to derailing this thread.
