Chuckled at this - I'm in the UK and major problems here with trying to get a decent bet on with Bookmakers and am 100% exchange now - recreational punters have been shut down for getting lucky ,most long term winning punters get restricted to pennies and a few pounds - bookmakers have withheld funds from accounts , all sorts of capers - go here for the full story -
https://justiceforpunters.org/ - Simon Rowlands - ex Timeform , started this organisation to challenge for reform and bookmaker malpractise has been one of the issues campaigned against - proof here with stories from punters who have felt the impact -

From this there has been recent moves where certain bookmakers (only a few to be fair) have come up with a "guarantee" of sorts to lay all bets up to take out a maximum of £500 pounds - some have added conditions - only certain races (usually the most competitive) or only certain times of the day (market moves / weight of money) - Australia has had the same problems in the not too recent past , caused i am sure by the influx of UK Bookmaking companies.
