Yes, they can.
Back in March I was playing a huge welcome bonus at Orange Gamez on Winter Wonders. After playing for some time at $7.50/spin I decided to up it to the max of $18.75/spin; It was fine for about 5 or 6 spins, then I got "booted" out of the game. When I came back in the maximum was $7.50/spin.
Tried the same thing on Love and Money and got the same result!
Even with my case above, I VERY seriously doubt there is someone sitting there in the casino tracking what players are doing. I think it's much more likely to be some automated system, though why it let me do any big spins at all does cast some uncertainty on that...
However, I still find it extremely unlikely that TiV would allow bets of $50, let alone $100/spin on ANY of their slots.

So, why have it at $18.75 max to start with, if a mere 6 spins scares them enough to boot a player and reset it.
It is pretty naive of Rival to do it this way, giving us PROOF POSITIVE that they boot players in order to mess with their games WHILST THEY ARE PLAYING.
This accusation was levelled at RTG, and a couple of ex employees said it was so, but other operators said it was not.
Now, we have POSITIVE PROOF that one major software does indeed do this to player, whether it really is someone sitting there monitoring, or some automated system.
If it happened to KK, this is "positive proof" as far as I am concerned, and backs up the OP's story of him being able to bet $100, and later finding he can't.
Add this to the Tradition BJ scandal, and we seem to have caught Rival with their pants down yet again. Rival at the time said they had withdrawn the ability of operators to mess with the games, but it seems they were "economical with the truth" because they clearly have some kind of system that tracks individual players, and changes their betting limits in play.
If Rival passed the card issue on to TiV, it means Sloto must have passed it to Rival, since they are fully independent, and do NOT share the Rival processor, nor support.
By passing this information to Rival, and then NOT updating it when the issue was resolved, Sloto have committed a legal libel, and Rival have passed this incorrect or incomplete information to TiV, who have acted upon it causing the player financial damage.
The initial information was a mistake, since the card did not belong to this player, but another - so has nothing to do with him.
