Pinnacle stake rejected?

Anyone else getting stake rejected messages from Pinnacle more often lately? I tried a mid-level wager on KBO last night, nothing crazy, and it kicked back an error saying the stake couldn’t be accepted. Ended up having to drop it down, which was weird because I never had trouble betting that amount before, even on smaller markets.

I’m not sure if this is just bad luck, or if they’re tightening up on certain sports, or maybe my account’s getting some kind of limit. I play mostly live and props, maybe that’s a red flag? Curious if other folks have been seeing stake limits move, or if this is just something I should expect now?

Nah, “account getting flagged” is probably the wrong read lol. Kbo/live/props just go thin fast, and pinnacle moves on sharp money way quicker there, so a stake gets rejected or trimmed even when it used to go through.

Quick thing, “trimmed” is the part people miss. Rejection isn’t blackjack table max. Sometimes they’ll take 38% and call it a day.

its not even the reject that gets me, its the stupid little haircut where 20 less goes through like wow thanks for the permission slip. that feels less like market panic and more like theyve got some internal exposure number on kbo/live props and once u tap it they make u kneel a bit. same thing is why i drifted into crypto casinos for a minute, faster rails, fewer little nanny errors, then u remember half of them are basically a slot mall with a sportsbook taped on and come crawling back salty. im lowkey jealous u only got clipped 20 tbh mine started doing that on niche baseball then suddenly player outs too. when it kicked u back, did the price stay exactly the same for those few seconds or did it come back with the same line but a worse number, because thats the part that tells me its not just random system junk

Roulette side bets is exactly where I started getting weird stake trims, ngl. Were you talking lightning crap or straight up neighbors?
