5 dime's a bunch of crooks

ohnevah · 02-24-11, 02:07 PM

WOW.......yeah, I'm not going there.

twelvejewelz · 02-24-11, 02:07 PM

Wow i would be furious. Ok but would they adjust your bet with the new line? A win is a win regardless.. Its not your fault they messed up...

D3 Mighty Ducks · 02-24-11, 02:08 PM

Wow that is some serious BS.

HoulihansTX · 02-24-11, 02:10 PM

You bet into bad lines you get the wrath of the 5Dimes manager. He is an asshole, and doesnt like it when people take advantage of his mistakes.

He voided your 1stH bet out of spite.

SBR wont do shit either. Just take your money to the Greek, where the players play.

rsnnh12 · 02-24-11, 02:18 PM

How the hell could "the correct line be Dallas Mavericks -145"??? They didn't play the Knicks lol

I would bring that up with them, but if they voided it before the game starts, you're out of luck. Always gotta check right before game time, when you have a line that might be off. +400 HT and FT for a 7 pt fav is definitely a bad line

flocko76 · 02-24-11, 02:19 PM

i'm confused.... the knicks played the bucks and dallas played the jazz.

j4time · 02-24-11, 02:21 PM

Ok i will be going to greek What really tees me off is that they say we sent email at 12:04 last night when they figured out they were gonna lose alot of money on the bet ..
And then the women accused me of trying to find lines thatare wrong and betting them and I lost it i was like your a sorts book ARE YOU KIDDING ME . If i was a lil richer i would no lie fly down there and go offffffff. Or if I was a lil broker.

lunchbawks · 02-24-11, 02:21 PM

5dimes staff should hang.

how many times are we going to let this sh-t happen? honestly this is real money here not some SBR points nonsense.

Mikail · 02-24-11, 02:21 PM

I call bullshhh! It looks like your telling stories. At least get the right teams before you post your tall tale.

warriorfan707 · 02-24-11, 02:22 PM

Im not too thrilled when I see $hit like this

I love 5dimes and have never had a problem with them but this is BS

j4time · 02-24-11, 02:23 PM

Sorry they say they say they sent email at 6;40 but really at 12;04

drc6491 · 02-24-11, 02:30 PM

i would go off! thats why i stick to a major website. sportsbook .com

kcDdegenerate · 02-24-11, 02:34 PM

5dimes is a good book..I cant imagine any book that would pay on an obviously bad line like this one..All books have rules where the have the right to void bets if they put up incorrect lines

demens · 02-24-11, 02:38 PM

Dont bet bad lines. +400 is a mistake, it should be beyond obvious.

Dallas Mavericks were not -145 ............... nor were the Knicks -145 ....

This guy is a liar

twelvejewelz · 02-24-11, 02:41 PM

I think they should pay you for whatever the correct line was ,it was still a win and you know they would be taking your money if it was a loss...

Yeah... they're called arbitrage bettors and it's perfectly legal. The book should honor the posted odds, but since they know you have no legal recourse in the murky waters of online gambling, they can do what they did. I wonder if they would've refunded the money if the bet has lost.

masticore · 02-24-11, 02:46 PM

I think its ok when books cancle bad lines....

In my book (centrebet) have them cancle sometimes..but always before the game...

But one thing I dont understand here:

Thank you for choosing 5Dimes Group.

Do I miss something?? Can anyone explain this?

I guess they can do what they want since there half way round the country . but it still just pisses me off . Heck I was gonna play Kinks ML -280 and would have made 2 hundo instead I played this and have NOTHING to show for it .

And for it saying Dallas I was totaly pissed . Telling the lady that barley speaks english what the Hell is this.

I called them at 7;30 this morning when I got home from work and they told me sorry that they graded the ticket wrong but got on at noon and shite hit the fan

Dude this isn't that kinda forum...

5 dimes got the score wrong on a basketball game i bet on, i had to tell them to look it up on espn, and wait around until they checked it, but they gave me the money. now i check every wager carefully after it's been graded

MUHerd37 · 02-24-11, 04:28 PM

I have heard of 5Dimes doing this before. They did it to someone in this forum with gold lines. They also accused that person of looking around for bad lines.

spankie · 02-24-11, 04:32 PM

wow. if thats true, im moving my money.

stevenash · 02-24-11, 04:39 PM

b.s.

Dark Horse · 02-24-11, 04:43 PM

Knicks were up 59-57 at the break. Obviously a halftime line of NY +400 was a bad line. What are you guys even going on about? You really never heard of a bad line?

lol sounds like bs, 5dimes has always been a good book for the majority of us.

pm4e · 02-24-11, 04:49 PM

So you want to take advantage of bad lines WHILE being wined and dined by 5Dimes customer service. Gimme a break.

warriorfan707 · 02-24-11, 04:51 PM

Ban

j4time · 02-24-11, 05:43 PM

Why would people come on here and say ban and you so dumb. Us players need to stick together about things like this or they can run all over us . But who knows you may just be 5dimes empolyes

warriorfan707 · 02-24-11, 05:46 PM

Mods need to send this guys account to hell

lunchbawks · 02-24-11, 05:46 PM

Bookmakers aren't allowed to post "bad lines"

I'm sure if you lost your bet, your money wouldn't be refunded.

If pro bookies make errors, they should pay for their mistakes, in the grand scheme of things, paying out 800 is nothing. Pay 800 > lose reputation....
