    I think that 5dimes has more betting options. I play there and have yet to find a better book. I live in the US so I have a few less options, but from my experience 5dimes is best.

    From what I've seen on the forum Tony only is an ass when you treat him like shit or try to screw him over somehow

    Dont think you can go wrong with either book though

    5 Dimes has good prop bets and excellant reduced juice lines which are key for baseball and MMA.

    If you're a rec player, 5D for reduced juice.

    Stick your cash into a book where you already have a significant balance. This makes any rollover a non-factor.
    Don't put $50 or a $100 where you have little or no balance unless that is your only option. This should be a non-brainer for you..

    5D is my choice and is where I have my largest balance.

    5dimes has the most betting options for a US player. challenger tennis, tennis spreads, over/unders, props, doubles, set betting

    lots of player, team and game props for lots of sports.


    you can parlay prop bets into your parlays....they offer reduced juice incentives or if you want instead you can choose to be in their cashback program where you get back 15% of your losses.

    good futures, fast reliable customer service. extremely fast payouts. ** or ** sameday, fee covered. they put their lines out early.

    live dealer casino with cameras and actual cards and an actual dealer. for blackjack for example- you can watch them shuffle plus they cant stack the deck because they dont know how many players are going to sit down.

    you can do a 25-team parlay if you really want to.

    the complaints you hear about them are basically just about the owner bein an a$$hole. or about people winning then getting their limits cut. if this is your first deposit there and you dont intend to cheat them, id definitely go with 5d- as you wont have to deal with either of these things initially.

    like post a play passed start time then wait till your team is down 20 points and ask them to cancel it because it was posted late....the owner "tony" might tell you he's god and that he'll rape your grandmother with a rusty spoon or any other crazy thing that comes into his head.

    but generally they solve problems with their CS.

    Both books are great. The "problems" with 5dimes are normally from people who were either really unreasonable to begin with or tried to bend the rules (ex. placing multiple limit bets on the same side of a game). I can't imagine either site giving you any issues whatsoever for the size of bets you'd be doing with free cash from SBR.
