Anyone have experience turning down a increase on a venture card in hopes of getting a bigger one?

Several people here have done that. Not sure if they got bigger ones later on. Personally I'd take what they offer and wait fior the next time to ask for more.
I have had my Venture card 4 months and got a 2k increase today. I guess it would depend on how much CLI you are looking for? Dont get greedy though.

I have read posts where folks have talked of doing this, specifically with the hopes of waiting a few weeks and trying again. The idea is by the time they try again their score will be a little higher (or Capital One will simply be feeling more generous).
Since I've been denied by the "Luv button" before because I hadn't waited long enough since the last increase, when I went for an increase on my new QS Visa I had already decided I would turn down anything less than a $1K increase in hopes of trying again in a few weeks for something better. They were in a good mood that day (I got $2K increase) so I didn't have to decline it.
So, if they offer you something ridiculous I would definitely not accept it. There's no point locking yourself out for a few months for a token increase that doesn't help anyway.
