Intertops limits???

[mr green]

Why does intertops even offer 1st half lines for college bb, their limit is $110. They have pretty low limits all around, I thought they were a really strong book, what is the reason for this?

[Hartley]

It depends when you bet it. The overnights and early lines are at about that but as the day goes on the limits increase. I'm not sure what the final limit is on 1st half bball though.

Intertops first half college basketball limits are NEVER more than $110.

[Cons]

Mr, Green, this book is one of the biggest in the business. But to get the limits you desire you have to call them to have the limits raised.

Take a tennis bet for instance. The limit was $110. I called and asked if they would accept a larger wager, and I was allowed to place $1100. Once once in over five years have they not agreed to raise the limit for a bet that I wanted to make.

Overall, they will do their best to accomodate the size of your wager. Simply call them and they will be glad to help you, and 99% of the time you will be allowed to place a large bet on the betting option of your choice. At least that has been my experience over the last few years...

Exactly what is max bet on Super Bowl money line that ITops will accept ?
Thanks,

I have heard in the past how solid they were and have tried they placing small parlay bets just to see if I liked them. I found them okay, however the limits seemed strange, but I'll take Cons advice and give them a call. Thanks.

[Cons]

Nobody blast me if I'm mistaken, but I recall two seasons ago that you could place up to 11K on the superbowl on game day, though I can't remember if this was spread, moneyline, or both.

Don't trash me if I'm wrong, but I do recall something like that in the past. Don't know how things will be now as I don't bet US sports anymore.

Cons,

When you got your limits raised, was that strictly on 3-way soccer, or was it ever on low-vig markets (like bases)?

[Cons]

Well, I didn't try it on bases as I would sooner bet on a coin toss, but I have had limits raised on soccer and tennis. Maybe F1 in tha past as well, but it's always been the case of raising the limit to the $1100 level, and rarely beyond (last year's Italian soccer futures was only one last season). I have bet basketball in the past but I think at the time the limit was $1100 anyway.

This is EXACTLY the reason I emptied my account there ( Intertops ) I mean people say this book is solid and all but c,mon get some balls behind ya Intertops 110 bucks your kidding me. I know it is the truth though I was betting Nfl totals at the beggining year with $275 limits not to be a bigshot but this place is to Mickey Mouse for me......Bigger limits no questions try nasa,millenium,v-wager ( I bet 2 dimes on a prop bet last night at nasa and without raising an eyebrow they took it)
