Look like an Average Punter
Bookmakers love to have losers betting against them. Most people who bet on sport lose so you want to mirror their behaviour where possible (not the losing part hopefully!).
All of the tactics below are designed to make you appear like an average punter.
1. Round up your betting stakes
Rounding up your stakes to whole numbers is going to help you avoid getting your bets limited. If your stakes aren’t rounded then you are going to attention to yourself as a potential arber or value bettor who is using a staking strategy.
2. Bet during peak hours
Try to place as many value bets as possible during periods when lots of regular punters are also placing bets i.e. on a Friday night or at the weekend.
3. Mix in casino bets and small stake accumulators
Throw in the odd casino bet and small stake accumulator on a premier league game. As long as you keep the stakes small there’s no real downside to doing this so even if you think it’s not going to have too much of an effect then I still recommend doing it.
I know it can be hard to purposefully place negative EV bets but remember that it’s going to help you make more money in the long term.
4. Don’t just bet on low-tier competitions
If you exclusively place bets on some obscure league then you are likely to be flagged so I would say if you are going to be betting on lower tiers at least mix in some more bets on high limit competitions like a Champions League game or the French Open.
5. Do not make unnecessary withdrawals
Frequent withdrawals are going to flag your account pretty quickly. Try to only withdraw your money once you have been limited.
6. Avoid making a large first deposit
Within the first couple of days of registration, you want to be drawing as little attention to yourself as possible. Depositing a large amount early on is a big red flag.
7. Bet closer to kickoff
If you are betting on games that don’t kickoff for weeks then you are not blending in with the average punters who typically like to bet very close to kickoff usually only a few hours.
If you are using dropping odds alerts to beat bookies then you might want to consider reducing your ‘max time to match start filter’ in your alert configurations so you are focusing on value bets on games that kickoff in the near future.
8. Take a break
If your account is on an incredible run where you just can't stop winning, consider taking a short break. Your account might be up for review so use another bookmaker for a while then come back to the account after a while.

Filters Can Help!
POD allows users to configure their alerts with 9 different filters which means our users are able to find value bets that users of other less configurable services aren't finding.
This is great for avoiding account limitations as sportsbook traders often look to see if an account is placing bets that a lot of other accounts are also placing indicating that they have all come from the same value or arbitrage betting service. This means finding 'unique' value bets is a great way to fly under the radar.
Keep on using your limited accounts
Remember, once your account has been limited it’s often still worth using it. In some instances, you can still get decent size bets on.
Furthermore, for some sports/leagues, you might not be limited at all so don’t discard an account as soon as you see the bookie has put some kind of limitation on it, keep on using it!
