1st Fidelity

[brink]

1ST FIDELITY is a book you'll NEVER have to worry about getting paid from. Solid as a rock. SBR is a joke. Mabey they didn't like the way the clerk talk to them. Certainly isn't a money issue.

Sportsbooks decrease limits for a number of reasons, most of them related. They decrease because of a pattern of play, because they believe accounts are related, or because a player is considered professional or sharp. The amount with which they are cut varies. Some will only cut in half, some will cut you to such a ridiculously low limit that the player won't deem it worth playing there anymore and will leave (that's usually the sportsbooks intention).

Now we're talking from dime or higher limits to nickel or lower limit cuts. If you're a $50 - $100 player, you won't have much to worry about.

why do they decrease limits and how significantly? Is this the practice at all sportsbooks?

I've had good results with First Fidelity for over a year now. Only complaint would be that they cut back my limits, but that's par for the course.

We don't rate our advertisers the same as SBR. None of those books on SBR advertise with them, that is simply a site that rates books.

We have First Fidelity on the list because there are no payout complaints about them and they are by all accounts solid. The only complaints revolve around customer service and spam mail. We don't believe that is a reason not to advertiise a sportsbook.

If you ever want a more in depth opinion on a book, feel free to contact us as we would be happy to expand on our opinions privately.

How does someone reconcile a strong rating for 1st Fidelity on this site with only a C+ rating at Sports Book Review?
