Introducing Whale Mode: Automated position building on Cloudbet


Whale Mode is a first-of-its-kind automated position builder for VIP sports traders.

It’s one of the most powerful execution features we’ve ever built, designed to solve a real problem serious bettors face when placing large wagers: markets don’t accept size in a single bet.

This post explains what Whale Mode is, why it exists, and how it works — using Super Bowl LX as a practical example.

The execution problem

Even on the biggest sporting events in the world, sportsbooks limit the maximum stake allowed per bet.

If you want meaningful exposure, you’re forced to:

  • Place dozens of smaller bets
  • Re-check odds on every entry
  • Race market movement as prices change
  • Manually track total exposure

This isn’t just inconvenient — it leads to poor execution, and missed opportunities.

What is Whale Mode?

Whale Mode is an automated stake builder that allows you to place bets of effectively unlimited size.

If your desired stake exceeds the maximum allowed per bet, Whale Mode automatically places multiple smaller bets in sequence to build the full position for you.

You control:

  • Your target stake
  • Your minimum acceptable odds

Whale Mode handles the execution.

Super Bowl example

Objective

You want to place $500,000 on Seahawks -4.5.

The market allows a maximum stake of $47,200 per bet

and

Without Whale Mode, reaching your target requires:

  • At least 11 separate bets

and

With Whale Mode:

  1. Enter your $500,000

Manual execution

Without Whale Mode, reaching your target requires:

  • 40 separate bets
  • Manual re-entry each time
  • Constant odds checks
  • Adjusting endlessly as the market moves

This process is slow, repetitive, and error-prone — especially close to kickoff when liquidity shifts quickly.

Whale Mode execution

With Whale Mode:

  1. Enter your $500,000 target stake
  2. Set your minimum acceptable odds
  3. Start Whale Mode

From there, Whale Mode automatically:

  • Places sequential bets at current market odds
  • Tracks progress toward your target stake
  • Stops if odds fall below your minimum, the market closes, or you stop it.

Same market. Same intent.

Significantly better execution.

Why Whale Mode matters

Whale Mode isn’t about betting more — it’s about betting efficiently.

For high-volume and high-conviction bettors, execution quality determines:

  • Average odds achieved
  • Speed of entry
  • Exposure accuracy
  • Overall efficiency

By automating position building, Whale Mode removes friction and human error from the process.

Availability

Whale Mode is now enabled for all players on major, pre-match markets.

If Whale Mode isn’t shown, the market may not be supported or the event may already be live.

What’s next

Players who want to stay on top of the latest features and get access to new tools before anyone else should consider enabling Early Access in their account preferences.
