    Opening lines
    Ey dudes.


    5dimes have limited openers to pennies, can we all come together and not bet on opening lines, let them be set, often inaccurately on other bookies and then wager?

    I know theres a lot of people who wants this. Basically everyone ive talked to across different forums, as 50 dollars on an opener, does it really matter?

    Im not talking about props, but straight plays.

    We help the bookies setting tight lines and were all loosing out a lot of money, basically.

        We just need to target the few people, if there are few, who bet the opening lines. Dont you think there are only the hardcores who bet on MMA tuesday afternoon?

        I might be completely off obviously...

            Overall I just think more attention is getting paid to MMA lines as the amount of $ increases.....I don't exactly have #'s to support this at the moment....its just the vibe I've felt recently...as for the openers-I dunno there is a weird crowd out there that feel good about themselves beating the opening line----but really if your that good it would get you banned ..but I agree...giving them that info in no benefit to anyone but them....

              Thats one thing. That it only benefits few. But the most important point is that no one really earn anything. If you can get 50-100 dollars in, compared to 500-1000 dollars later. But its hard to sell that to people who bet small amounts, maybe.

                There are a lot of recreational players who are destroying the openers with low limits. $50 might not be much for you and me, but it might be a half or whole unit for some guys. I don't think there's a way to get random people on the internet to agree to lay off. Even if you do, you have the people who don't go onto forums who won't get the message.

                  If lets say 50% of the hardcores would stop betting opening lines, do you think it would have an impact?

                  Or would the casuals and recreational still smash the lines ?
