    Is 5Dimes going under?

    They have had their site down and come back online multiple times the last few days. I saw people on here today say it was down this morning then came back up around 8:59. When I looked around 9:30 it was down and then it was back up a little after 10. When the site came back online, I looked and saw that they had posted lines (spread and moneyline) for all the NCAA first and second round games. They told me over the phone that the area had had multiple power outages.

    I think it is one of 3 things: 1.) They want to slow down the volume on NCAA tournament and spread the volume out how they see fit, 2.) There really has been MULTIPLE power outages EVERY SINGLE DAY for the past few days, or 3.) the book, this so-called well established book that has been around since the late 90's, is going under like a BetIslands or is about to be seized by the gambling-hating US of A.

    My question is: do you think the power outages excuse is legit, or should people pull their money out and just stick to locals?

    I live here in Costa Rica (where 5dimes is also located). We've been having internet issues for about the past 2 weeks. Relax.

    I received two payouts last week for decent amounts. I gtd. that 5dimes is licking their chops right now, with the tourney on the horizon. Trust me, they don't want these poweroutages.

    I'm still waiting for him to explain to me how Florida is a better team than Boston (and I hate Boston), funny how that thread mysteriously died after the Bruins pounding. Here's a link that might come in handy:

    No, that's not why I moved to Mexico. But I'm glad you think you know so much about me.

    No, I don't live in Mexico currently. I'm likely going back in about a week for a couple months though. But that has nothing to do with it.

    I have plenty of friends who live in the US, have never moved abroad, and play on Stars/FTP every day. Some of them might also bet on Pinny. It's not impossible to have and use your Pinny/Stars/FTP/Party etc. accounts if you live in the US. Use your brain buddy, you claim to be some intelligent person so I have no idea why you're acting like it's so impossible to do so.
