What should I bet if Kelly says to bet more than maximum allowed bet? #3

Let's say I have 150k and so Kelly says to bet 16k, but the maximum bet is 10k. What should I do?

Just do max allowed bet? But then I'll be betting the same for different expected returns, doesn't make much sense...
Do I lower my bankroll so that Kelly's bets don't exceed the maximum bet? This seems to make sense, but might not provide that great grow rate... I had to find it experimentally, but there must be a formula for this.
