I think they have different buckets that have limits. I applied for a blue, approved instantly, I then immediately applied for a Clear, denied instantly for maximum number of cards, then immediately applied for Hilton, instant approval.
So if you get an instant denial for maximum number of cards, try applying for a different card. You've already taken an inquiry so you might as well keep trying to get something for it.
