live blackjack table min changed after shoe shuffle and broke my bonus max bet

So this was a new one for me. I sat down at a live dealer blackjack table and was working a deposit bonus with a clear max bet cap. Table minimum was right in the sweet spot at 5 bucks, so I started chipping away. After a couple of shoes, the table did a shuffle and suddenly the min went up to 25 out of nowhere. That threw my bonus plan out the window, since betting more than the limit would for sure screw up my withdrawal.

Not sure if this is common or if it was just bad timing, but I had to jump off and hope it didn’t trigger any kind of bonus violation. Didn’t see any warning from the dealer or in the chat. Has anyone else run into this? I thought the bet minimum was locked in for the whole session, at least until you left. It feels off, like there should be some kind of heads-up before that happens. Wondering if it’s something to watch for on other sites or just a weird glitch.

Yeah, that happens. The bit people miss is your “session” means nothing to the live studio lol, blackjack limits follow the table config, and after a shuffle/reopen they can bump it with zero fanfare. Annoying as hell, not a glitch usually.

Yeah, the $5 to $25 jump is the bit that'd do my head in, especially right after a shuffle.

$5 to $25 mid-shoe is grim

Stream delay is exactly why I quit live Roulette for bonus clearing, the camera angles made me miss a cap once and future me was sooo mad. Reliability matters.

Bonus clearing on live is where I got lazy once and ate it!!! NetBet had fuzzy betting limits, support did the usual shrug, and that was enough for me. Meh
