anyone notice online casinos reduce your maximum bet after you win

casino says my sector betting is “non recreational” but i was just clicking racetrack

so i got this email from the casino saying my roulette play is flagged as “non recreational” just because i keep clicking numbers around the racetrack. i’ve never read the terms that closely but didn’t realize just picking sectors is a problem? i wasn’t doing anything fancy - just like neighbors, zero section, sometimes two thirds. i figured the whole point of the racetrack was to make it easier to spread your bets? honestly i don’t even have a system, just small stakes, kind of obsessed with wheel layouts. has anyone else had this come up? do they seriously expect everyone to just bet random straight up numbers or red/black every time? this is the first time a casino’s actually said anything to me about how i bet and it feels a bit weird. maybe i’m missing something about the “spirit” of recreational play? what do you guys do - spread out or stick to single spots?

Final table deal math?

been looking into final table deals, mostly chip chop vs icm splits, and honestly it's getting a bit overwhelming trying to work out what’s actually fair when big pay jumps come into play. i know icm is supposed to be more “correct” but it feels like folks either rush through it or just want to go by chips because it’s faster and simpler. i’m pretty solid with numbers from sports betting but these payout structures add a whole other layer of weirdness i’m still wrapping my head around. do most of you just use calculators/apps for this? or are there any simple rules of thumb you lean on when someone suggests making a deal?

rebuy addon question

so i’m just starting to dip my toe into live tourneys with rebuy and addon options. i know the basics but i still get confused about when it’s actually worth going for an addon, especially if i’ve got a slightly below average stack but not completely desperate. i’m mostly a sports bettor, so the idea of adding more after a losing streak feels weird. i’m just trying to get a feel for when other folks think it’s +ev or if it’s sometimes better to just take the stack you’ve got and play it out.

stake blackjack round showed win but transaction log says manual adjustment pending.

played a quick blackjack round and it popped up as a win on the table, balance looked right too, but now the transaction log says manual adjustment pending instead of just crediting the win. i get stuff happens sometimes, just haven't seen it like this before, usually the win or loss updates instantly. tried refreshing and clearing cache, still shows as pending. not a huge amount but feels weird since i'm trying to actually stick to tighter bankroll management lately. don't want to stress out over one round but the uncertainty is just kinda distracting me from focusing on the next hand. anyone else ever dealt with a manual adjustment? wonder if it gets fixed right away or if i should just take a break for now and wait it out.
