Sister book question?

monicus · May 21, 2003

If you make a bet at Gameday for example can you make the same bet with the same account name at its sister book bet19? I would like to know for other sister, brother combos as well, not just the one listed.

Thanks in advance

you can, but they'll probably cut your limits.

I don't know from personal experience, but I have read that for Bet19 and Gameday, it is OK.

The SportingBetUSA, SportsBook, PlayersOnly (etc., etc.) crew frown on placing bets at the various books that collectively surpass the maximum bet limit at an individual book. If you want to bet a LIMIT-PLUS bet, they prefer that you phone it in to only one of the books.

might be worth your time to just talk to them about raising your limits.

but if you are playing line moves, expect your limits to be cut.

"but if you are playing line moves, expect your limits to be cut."

or winning ... so make sure you buy any value or pick winners

What baout VIP and Gameday...what exactly is their relationship?

I got cut to $100 a game at Gameday so is there any point joining VIP?

Neilm,

VIP went on a buying spree. They now own -

vipsports.com
wwsb.com
sunnysportsbook.com
betgameday.com
bet19.com (via gameday)
fivecardcharlie.com
fairdealsports.com (via fcc)

and a whole bunch of casino's & a few horseracing books

If you got cut to $100 a game at Gameday, then VIP already knows about it. Depending on the reasons for cutting your limits, you may not even be allowed to play at VIP, or any of their other books.
