Cloudbet has launched Whale Mode, a new automated sportsbook feature designed to help bettors place very large bets more efficiently. Introduced ahead of the Super Bowl, Whale Mode is now available to all Cloudbet players on supported pre-match markets.
What is Whale Mode?
Whale Mode is an automated position builder that removes the need to manually place multiple bets when stake limits apply. Instead of repeatedly betting smaller amounts, players can set a target stake and a minimum acceptable odds level and the system handles the execution automatically.
If the desired stake exceeds the maximum allowed per bet, Whale Mode splits the position into a sequence of smaller bets and places them one after another until the target is reached or market conditions change.
Why it matters
Even on major events like the Super Bowl, sportsbooks cap individual bet sizes. This forces high-stakes bettors to:
- Place many smaller bets
- Monitor odds constantly
- Track total exposure manually
All of this can lead to slower execution and missed value, so Whale Mode helps by automating the entire process, improving speed, accuracy and consistency when building large positions.
How It Works
Once activated, Whale Mode will:
- Place sequential bets at current market prices
- Track progress toward the total target stake
- Stop automatically if odds drop below the player’s limit, the market closes or the player intervenes
For example, a player aiming for $500,000 of exposure where the max bet is $50,000 would normally need at least 10 manual bets. With Whale Mode, the same exposure can be built through a single automated workflow.
