I'm also not maxbetting a lot of the time unless i'm hitting opening lines though - also I do it for the love of esports/sweats watching the games more than profit, i'm a professional poker player and recreational (although profitable) sportsbettor. My average bet size is 100-200ish at base units
Limits start at 50-100 opening lines, move to 200, then 500 then 1k by game time usually for major tournaments like Proleague, Code S, etc.
Major tournaments with six figure prizemoney etc are often 2-10k for the grand final but less in early rounds.
Live betting limits are usually 200-500ish
Overall I find the most value in marginal favourites that should be bigger favourites (-110 to -170 range) but there's often value on dogs as well.
In general I *think* if I blanket bet all underdogs or favourites I would lose overall both ways but results would be worse blanket betting all dogs narrowly. That's not based on any analysis though just what I think would be the case.
Just woke up; limits are 307 aud atm (250 us?) so they're getting up to a level where i'll consider making bets, they'll be 500-1k US on game day. Most of the line movement happens in the minutes before each game, so if we want to bet a fan favourite we bet now or sooner than now, if we want to fade a fan favourite (Flash, Jaedong, etc) then we bet literally one second before the game starts if possible. It's not uncommon to see lines move from -120 to -210 or +135 to +200 etc
