why some sportsbooks restrict certain players but not others completely.

I’ve noticed lately that my buddy and I have been treated totally different by the same sportsbook, even though we both hit the promos pretty hard. I get the “you’re ineligible for this bonus” or straight up stake restrictions almost weekly, meanwhile he’s coasting without a single hiccup, still getting all the reloads and offers. The weirdest part is I’d say our betting habits are similar, maybe I’m a bit more aggressive but nothing wild.

We both stick to the casino stuff too, not just sports. I never go crazy high with stakes but I do like to take advantage of new offers pretty much right away. Not sure if it’s just algorithms flagging players who go straight to the promos, or maybe something to do with my withdrawal patterns or ID info? Would love to hear if anyone else has run into this and if there’s actually a way around it or if it’s just luck of the draw.

"coasting" is the tell imo. Books LOVE a guy who doesn't hit promos clean.

Yeahhh “similar habits” is usually where people kid themselves a bit lol. If you’re hitting softer alt lines or stale numbers, you get tagged way faster. Poker taught me books clock patterns, not vibes 🙂

It’s not just the short casino bursts, that gets overstated. Half the time the real issue is books writing bonus terms like mud and deciding later what “recreational” means.
