Need Some Feedback

Don't know if any of you guys have had this experience but I'll tell you what's recently been happening with me. Recently I got hooked up with an online credit account, normally I have always played at post-up shops and only the elite offshores. I am a student of line moves and watch them from the opening number until tip-off or kickoff. I have the don best platinum service so I know where the money is going. With this new credit account it is obvious to me that these people are changing the lines on a player by player basis. In other words, when I put in my wagers, if they're over my max per wager limit, let's say I have a 1,500 dollar overall wager limit but can only put in $500 at a time, if I want to put 1,500 on a game, after I put in the first 500, the 2nd 500 has either a different number or the juice is higher, same thing when I go to put in the 3rd 500, and this happens EVERYTIME I do this.

As I stated, I'm a student of line moves, and there is no way in hell that I can believe that my 500 dollar wagers are moving lines for the entire sportsbook. Just curious if any of you have had this experience.

I have noticed this at Carib also, but only on half-time bets.

Multiple limit wagers on the same side have always been required to be placed at a different number. You are not moving the line, the book is just saying this is the only option you have if you want to bet more than the limit.
