Well, if you didn't have those rules, you wouldn't be running a gambling game for very long, because you would soon lose all your money to the pro bettors. So those rules exist by necessity.



I think a cap on bet sizes is reasonable but typically platforms outright ban pros. A bookie can only go out of business to pros if they are terrible at setting the odds


The difference between a bet size cap and an outright ban is merely symbolic when you're talking about pro bettors.
